Description:
Relevance of the topic. Effective methods of contraception are available in many
countries around the world, but unplanned pregnancies still remain as a problem. The causes of
unintended pregnancy are the inadequate or incomplete use of contraception ( failed contraception
measure , missed or delayed hormonal contraceptive pill), sexual abuse and unsafe sexual
intercourse. Emergency contraception - helps prevent unwanted pregnancy after unprotected sex
(Massa et al., 2017). Emergency contraceptives are often surrounded by myths, controversy, and
misconceptions. Therefore, it is important to give the right knowledge and to form the right
approach to the acquisition and use of emergency contraceptives (Cameron, Li, GemzellDanielsson, 2017)
Purpose of the study. Reveal the women emergency contraceptive experiences of
acquisition and use. Research tasks: 1. To review the possible contraceptive measures, the
benefits of the use of emergency contraceptive pills and the negative impact on the body. 2.
Theoretically explain the importance of a pharmaceutical specialist consultation for patients,
who acquires medication of emergency contraception in a pharmacy. 3. Discover the
experience of purchasing and consuming emergency contraceptives for women.
In this study, the analysis of scientific literature was carried out, 128 women were
interviewed by using the questionnaire survey method in the X pharmacy in Alytus city. The study
summarized the age of respondents, the attitude towards emergency contraception, sources of
information that help to find out about contraceptives, the benefits of a pharmaceutical service
provided by a pharmaceutical specialist, respondents' opinion on side effects, factors that determine
the use of emergency contraceptives.
Conclusions. 1. Contraceptives can be very effective, effective and less effective. When
occurs unprotected sexual intercourse or contraception failure, emergency contraception is an
effective measure of preventing unintended pregnancy. However, as with all medicines, they cause
adverse reactions during use, one of the main cause being nausea, headache, fatigue and irregularity
of the menstrual cycle. 2. The key role of a pharmaceutical specialists, in patients acquiring
emergency contraceptives, is to provide consultation to the patient to obtain complete and
comprehensible information. Consultations provided by pharmaceutical specialists can prevent
emergency contraceptives difficulties such as lack of information, lack of confidentiality, improve
correct use and contributing to the positive outcome of the problem. 3. The study revealed that
6
women tend to use emergency contraceptives with levonorgestrel active substances, half of them
use this medicine as emergency measues, others – because of a variety of other reasons: quarter use
because they forgot to take hormonal contraception pill, the fifth part to take precautions against
transmitted diseases. Half of respondents experienced menstrual disorders. Information about
emergency contraception usually provided by doctors, forums or articles found online. Only one
third of the respondents read all the information in the package leaflet. In more than half of the
respondents, the pharmaceutical specialist does not advise that the medicine does not protect against
sexually transmitted diseases, does not seek advice on the frequency of use, does not ask what drugs
are being used at that time, does not recommend visiting a doctor. Responding to the need for
emergency contraceptives, respondents mention inducing factors: acquisition of emergency
contraceptives without a prescription, purchase of emergency contraceptives at a pharmacy,
consultation with a pharmacy specialist (moda - 5). The main obstacles for acquiring emergency
contraceptives are the lack of information and confidentiality, the cost of emergency contraceptives,
the presence of acquaintances in the purchase of emergency contraceptives (moda-5).
