Emergency contraception (morning after pill)

If you had sex without a condom, or a condom split and you are not taking regular contraception, you can take emergency contraception (EC). There are three types of EC:

• Levonelle (pill) – can be taken up to 72 hours (three days) after sex
• EllaOne (pill) – can be taken up to 120 hours (five days) after sex
• Emergency coil – can be inserted up to 120 hours (five days) after sex.

Contact us as soon as you can. EC is more effective the sooner you take it so it is important to take it as soon as possible. If you are under 25 years old, you can get FREE EC at our clinics or these pharmacies in Camden and Islington.

Pharmacies may be affected by Covid-19 and may have limited supply of emergency pills. Please contact them as soon as possible and check that they can offer you free EC within the timeframe you are in so you don’t miss your window for taking it.
