Unintended pregnancy: The most harmful thing to occur is unintended pregnancy requiring bringing an "undesired" child into the world or a need for termination. It is time to exercise maturity in your sexual activity and use consistent secure contraception.

Agree w Dr. Ingram: I recommend that you don't have any further sexual activity until you use birth control responsibly, correctly and consistently. Using the Plan B will not affect future fertility.
