Belgium: New tool informs of choices in emergency contraception

In Belgium, the Fédération Laïque de Centres de Planning Familial (FLCPF) recently launched a new website to inform individuals that need contraception after sex, of the choices available to them and guide them through. The website includes a short and anonymous on-line questionnaire that helps decide what are the optimal postcoital contraption methods in a given individual and situation (the Cu-IUD, UPA or LNG EC pills). The web also informs of the cost and availability of each method, and helps identify if a medical consultation is necessary.

It was developed with support from de Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles and the French Community Commission (COCOF).
