We offer a confidential, private setting where you can ask us anything about emergency contraception and leave with your EC for just $25. Appointment required; call (207) 947-5337 today and we can usually see you within 24 hours, Monday-Thursday. Emergency contraception (EC) is a safe and effective back-up method that can prevent pregnancy if taken within 120 hours (5 days) from unprotected sex. Marketed under the brand name Plan B, it does not prevent HIV (the virus causing AIDS) or other sexually transmitted infections (STI’s). Click here to learn more about EC.
