EC IUD Access - Options for Sexual Health

Home > The Facts > EC IUD Access

The insertion of a copper IUD within 7 days of unprotected intercourse has been shown to prevent pregnancy.

Copper IUDs as emergency contraception are 99.9% effective, and significantly more effective than using hormonal emergency contraception, like Plan B (which is 60% effective).

Looking for a clinician who can insert an IUD quickly for emergency contraception?

Tips for your Emergency Contraception IUD appointment call

Let the clinic know that you want to make an appointment to get an emergency IUD
Discuss when you last had unprotected intercourse to be sure they can insert the IUD within the 7 day window
Ask about the cost of the IUD and discuss how you plan to pay
Ask if you should take over-the-counter pain medication like ibuprofen before your appointment to reduce possible discomfort during insertion
