Emergency contracept: Use of emergency contraception is relative to sexual activity, not ovulation. Check out http://www.drugs.com/plan-b.html for more info. Plan B is most effective when taken within 72hrs of unprotected sex (regardless of proximity to ovulation), the sooner the better. Assuming you want to engage in sex, check out http://goo.gl/Vu9CR0 for birth control options then discuss w/Family Doc & use condom

No, do it now!: If you take plan B within 72 hours of sex, it does provide good amount of protection. Do it now, even if the first sex was more than 72 hours ago. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine.
