• First is the ulipristal acetate pills which are produced by a brand named Ella. It is the most effective morning-after pill. It would help if you had a prescription to consume Ella.

These contraceptives can be bought and consumed without the prescription of a healthcare professional. You can buy this type of emergency contraception online.

What type is best for you?

The best contraception for you depends on these factors:

• How many hours it has been since you had unprotected sex

• Your weight
• Whether you are a breastfeeding mother
• Whether you have used a ring, patch or pill in the last five days

IUD and Ella are also challenging to get, whereas Levonorgestrel pills are readily available. You can buy these morning pills online. You need professional medical assistance to insert an IUD (either by doctor or nurse), and Ella needs to be prescribed. Also, it is advisable not to consume Ella if you are a breastfeeding mother. Plan B and other Levonorgestrel or morning-after pills are readily available and do not require a prescription or medical assistance.
