I am 17 days late and i took a test and it came out positive and i want to know if i took a plan b will it work?

Agree w Dr.Ferguson: Plan B One-Step is up to 89 % effective when taken within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex. It can reduce chance of pregnancy by up to 95% if used within 24 hours. It continues to reduce the risk of pregnancy up to 120 hours (5 days) after unprotected sex, but is less effective as time passes. Plan B is not an abortion pill.
