Hi,
Paragard is a very effective contraceptive method. It is more than 99% effective in preventing pregnancy. Therefore there is no need to use morning after pill after sex. I could not figure out why you thought of using morning after pill while you are already on a very effective method of contraception.

Oralcon contraceptive can be used as emergency contraception. You need to take 4 tablers of Oralcon at the earliest after unprotected sex and 4 tablets again after 12 hours. I have written this just for your knowledge.

I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
