In Jordan, you cannot find any dedicated emergency contraception (morning after pills) that are officially registered. However, you can use regular birth control pills as replacement ECPs, or you can get an IUD, which can also serve as emergency contraception.<ref>[http://www.cecinfo.org/country-by-country-information/status-availability-database/countries/jordan/ EC Status and Availability: Jordan]</ref> For more details, check out the section below ("What to Get & Where to Get It").

'''Note:''' The longest-lasting EC is currently [http://www.ellaone.com/ ellaOne]. It lasts up to 5 days (120 hours) after unprotected sex. Check to see if your country carries ellaOne. If your country doesn't carry ellaOne, copper IUDs may also prevent pregnancy up to 5 days after unprotected sex. If none of these options are available, and it's been over 3 days since you had unprotected sex, you can still take EC, which may work up to 5 days. Note that EC pills are not 100% effective and should be taken as soon as possible.
