Abstract
Dermatologists prescribe teratogenic or potentially teratogenic medications to treat a variety of skin diseases, including spironolactone for hormonal dysregulation in hidradenitis suppurativa or isotretinoin for severe acne. Although contraceptive options are regularly discussed, dermatologists must also be familiar with emergency contraceptive methods in the case that patients receiving teratogenic medications engage in unprotected sexual intercourse and do not desire pregnancy. A lack of knowledge regarding emergency contraceptive options may represent a practice gap for dermatologists.
