In Qatar, there are no dedicated emergency contraceptives (morning after pills). However, you can use regular birth control pills as replacement emergency contraception. To do that, please 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.
If you need emergency contraception (the morning after pill), you can take the following birth control pills, according to the instructions. Remember that, in 28-day packs, only the first 21 pills can be used.
 
For the following pills, take 2 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and take 2 more pills 12 hours later.
* Eugynon
* Neogynon
* Nordiol
* Ovral
 
For the following pills, take 4 pills within 120 hours after unprotected sex and take 4 more pills 12 hours later:
* Microgynon-30
* Nordette
