Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Emergency contraception pills have side effects that include nausea and vomiting, abdominal pain, breast tenderness, headache, and fatigue. The other statements about the morning-after pill are correct and are benefits of emergency contraception.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Women who are at high risk of sexually transmitted infections or pelvic infections should not use this form of emergency contraception. This includes women who have been raped. The other women would be appropriate candidates for emergency IUD contraception.
