Abstract

Unintended pregnancy is a pending issue of women's sexual and reproductive health rights, emergency contraception is a second opportunity to avoid an unintended pregnancy. The copper intrauterine device is the most effective option for emergency contraception. However, it is the least used method, factors such as counseling and personal health training to place the device are some of those identified as responsible. It offers benefits such as the start of a safe planning method for up to 10 years. Adverse effects and complications are rare, including uterine perforation or pelvic inflammatory disease. Its use is contraindicated if the pregnancy is confirmed.
