'''Note:''' The most effective emergency contraceptive is currently [http://www.ellaone.com/ ellaOne]. It lasts up to 5 days after unprotected sex. Other EC brands are generally effective for 1-3 days with occasional protection for up to 5 days. Japan currently does not carry ellaOne. If your country doesn't carry ellaOne, copper IUDs may also prevent pregnancy for up to 5 days after unprotected sex. If none of these options are available, look for regular EC, which may sometimes protect you for up to 5 days. Note that EC pills are not 100% effective, and they should be taken as soon as possible. | '''Note:''' The most effective emergency contraceptive is currently [http://www.ellaone.com/ ellaOne].
