许多强奸幸存者不寻求攻击后护理。最近紧急避孕药（EC）（例如Plan B）的状态发生了变化，改为非处方药（OTC）产品，这可能会进一步改变袭击后的就医方式。这项描述性研究将量化OTC EC在袭击后的使用情况，并引出幸存者对护理的需求。数据收集从妇女购买OTC EC在大学药房（n=55）和学生在大学本科班（n=165）。定量结果显示，攻击后使用OTC EC的年流行率为5.4%-7.3%。定性分析表明，OTC EC是一种重要但不完整的攻击后护理形式。未来的工作应集中在干预发展，为所有OTC EC用户提供有关攻击后资源的信息，以防止长期后遗症。
Many survivors of rape do not seek post-assault care. The recent change in status of emergency contraception (EC), such as Plan B, to an over-the-counter (OTC) product may be further changing post-assault care-seeking. This descriptive study will quantify OTC EC use in the post-assault period and elicit survivors’ desires for care. Data were collected from women purchasing OTC EC at university pharmacies (n=55) and students in an undergraduate university class (n=165). Quantitative results indicate annual prevalence rates of post-assault OTC EC use as 5.4%-7.3%. Qualitative analyses indicate OTC EC is an important but incomplete form of post-assault care. Future work should focus on intervention development to provide all OTC EC users with information about post-assault resources to prevent long-term sequelae.
