Here’s one of the greatest misunderstandings about the morning-after pill: it’s the only option when it comes to emergency contraception.

In fact, they are the most effective form of emergency contraception and can lower one’s chances of getting pregnant by 99.9 percent when inserted within five days of unprotected sex.
