Hmmm....: Plan B is called "B" because it is a back-up emergency plan. One does not use Plan B as her Plan A. Now is the time to get a fail-safe Plan A in place... with the goal of never needing Plan B again. Plan B is not to be used as one's method of birth control. Plan B is an emergency plan when Plan A fails. An IUD can do both in this situation, acting as a Plan B today, and as a Plan A after today.

Yes: Use over the counter Plan B if intercourse was within 72 hours to decrease the risk of unplanned pregnancy. This is true even if you already took it. It sounds like you should get on some birth control. Consider doing a virtual visit on Healthtap right now with a doctor in your state. Many birth control methods could be prescribed for you today
