title: [Recent results regarding indications for the "morning after pill"].
abstract: Results of interrogating 150 women who visited our department because of postcoital contraception are demonstrated. 80% did actually use one method of contraception. The rate of "condom accidents" was 70 per cent. Only 21 per cent did not use any method of contraception. Taking the facts of sexual habits into consideration we can conclude that women who wish to take the "morning after pill" have a more active sexual life. The intention to prevent an unwanted pregnancy through this postcoital method of contraception indicates a more responsible attitude towards sexuality. The popularity of this method may be increased.
