JCP, Why do you think this? I've seen it on a few web sites. If you trust Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org Emergency contraception cannot be recommended as the main means of birth control because it is not as effective as any ongoing method of contraception. It also does not protect against sexually-transmitted infections. However, it is used by some as a back-up when other means of contraception have failed—for example, if a woman has forgotten to take a birth control pill or when a condom is torn during sex. It is also a first line of treatment for victims of sexual assault. I've heard that even the withdrawal method is more effective than emergency contraception, but geez, if you're going to do that, why not just put on a condom? In any case, it's weird that emergency contraception is now available OTC while the birth control pill remains under prescription. Tenchusatsu
