[QUOTE]Originally posted by Redskies: [QB] Also - I wasn't going to say this because it's based on more of a hunch than solid knowledge, but maybe it's still helpful so long as I make that clear. There's a bit of a problem in the NHS - or a perceived problem, and I'm not in a position to know which - with wasted medicine, and doctors are often reluctant to prescribe solely on the basis of "just-in-case". I think it's possible that a GP may not prescribe EC before it's needed. Please don't let that put you off asking if you feel it's the right thing for you to do, because I can't know what any given doctor will say, but I just didn't want you to be super-surprised if that happens. If that does happen, sometimes a different doctor may feel differently, or you might have more success at a Brook centre or buying from a pharmacy. Too, if you live somewhere where you can't easily get to medical facilities or a pharmacy and transport is poor, I would hope that a doctor would agree with the wisdom there of having EC already.
