Emergency Contraception

Emergency contraception, commonly referred to as the morning after pill, can be used to prevent unplanned pregnancy after unprotected sexual intercourse, for example, when a condom breaks or comes off, after sexual assault or after any unprotected sexual intercourse.

Emergency contraception can be used up to five days after unprotected intercourse, but the sooner it is used, the more effective it is at preventing pregnancy.
