A member asked:
Does plan b still work before unprotected sex?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: If you took it and shortly thereafter had unprotected sex it would likely work the same way. However, i wouldn't suggest planning unprotected sex. Plan b is not a perfect method of pregnancy prevention. That's why we call it "emergency contraception" and not just in case contraception.
