Loop, a fantastic emergency contraception method!

Do you know that Intrauterine Contraceptive Device (IUCD) or Loop is a wonderful emergency contraception method?

It is much better than the Emergency Contraception Pills which have higher failure rates.

Ask your doctor about IUCD as an Emergency Contraception method.

You can obtain it free of charge from any 0f 1400 government family planning clinic in Sri Lanka.

Beware Emergency Contraceptive Pills!

Emergency Contraception Pills (ECP), the magic? The magic is questionable, if you tend to use it too often.

Do you know that ECP has 5% failure rate?

Do you know that ECP has high hormonal levels?

Do not use ECP as a regular family planning method. Do not keep on buying it over the counter, use a contraceptive method instead.

Selling ECP like Postinor 2 is a big business, do not get caught. Use a family planning method instead.
