In Saudi Arabia, emergency contraception (the morning after pill) is by prescription only.<ref>[http://www.cecinfo.org/country-by-country-information/status-availability-database/countries/saudi-arabia/ EC Status and Availability: Saudi Arabia]</ref> We're not sure who is allowed to get a prescription or the laws around prescription accessibility. However, birth control pills are available, which can be used as replacement EC. See the section below for details.

===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.
[information will be added soon]
