What Is Morning-After Contraception?

Morning-after contraception—also known as emergency contraception—helps prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex or contraceptive failure (e.g., condom breakage, missed pills). It is most effective when taken as early as possible, though some options can work up to 5 days after intercourse.

Available Morning-After Contraceptive Options

Levonorgestrel-Based Pills (e.g., Postinor)

Most effective within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex.
Works by delaying or inhibiting ovulation.
Available over-the-counter in some countries, but requires a prescription in Korea.

Ulipristal Acetate Pills (e.g., Ella)

Can be taken up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex.
More effective closer to ovulation and in women with higher body weight.
Prescription-only and must be taken under medical supervision.

Copper IUD as Emergency Contraception

Can be inserted within 5 days of unprotected intercourse.
Over 99% effective and offers ongoing contraception for up to 10 years.
Requires a short in-clinic procedure by a trained gynecologist.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Private Consultation
You’ll meet with a gynecologist to discuss the timing of unprotected sex, your menstrual cycle, and any medications or medical history that may influence the best method.
Emergency Contraception Recommendation
The doctor will provide a prescription or administer the recommended method (pill or IUD) and explain possible side effects and what to expect.
Post-Treatment Support
We offer counseling on follow-up care, when to expect your period, and how to transition to a regular birth control method for ongoing protection.

When to Use Morning-After Contraception

You had unprotected sex or missed your regular birth control
The condom broke, slipped, or was not used properly
You missed two or more birth control pills
