In women who have not had children, the fitting of an IUCD is much more difficult and dangerous. I don't think many doctors would be comfortable with providing an emergency IUCD to a 15 year-old.
OP - if your daughters friend has any abdominal pain, vomiting or fevers in the month, she should go to her GP or A&E. If the morning-after pill does fail, the risks of an ectopic pregnancy are higher.0
