Steph & Laura · An explainer on different contraception - with Dr Jacqueline Coombe · 16 Jun 2026 podcast

Just rock up to your chemist and say, hey, I need it.

And they should be able to give it to you.

You need to get it as soon as possible.

So as soon as you realize that something has happened, go and get it.

because it's more effective the sooner, the closer to unprotected sex or sex that wasn't as protected as you had hoped it had been.

So do that as soon as possible.

The other thing that people don't know, and it's a little bit trickier to do, but you can also use the copper IUD as emergency contraception.

So if you can get access to that within, I think it's within five days of unprotected sex, that is a really good form of emergency contraception as well, and then is ongoing contraception.

Whereas the morning after pill, you take it and that's it.

You then need to think about, well, is the contraception I was on, I am on, if you're on contraception, still working for me?

Is it still the right choice for me?

Was it just a blip?

Do I need to worry about this ongoing?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally, yeah.

Gosh, I wish there were more contraceptive options for men.

Yes, my God.

Like, the burden on women is just wild.

And, yeah, one thing men can do when they've decided that, and they've decided or they and their partners have decided they don't want any more kids is to have a vasectomy.

Pretty accessible.
