The copper IUD is a very effective method of contraception, practically insensitive to errors of use. A big advantage of the IUD is that the woman is constantly protected against pregnancy from the moment the IUD is inserted, and the risk of pregnancy during its use is very low. If the IUD is inserted within 5 days after unprotected sex, the woman is 99% protected against pregnancy.
An exception may be made if the cylinder has slipped out. In this case, an emergency contraceptive such as Escapelle can be used. It does not interact clinically relevant with the IUD.
Emergency contraception itself is also an effective method in case the method used has failed. For more information, go to: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/tabletka-po-czyli-antykoncepcja-awaryjna
