Plan B : Plan b should be taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. It is a high dose of Progesterone designed to delay or prevent ovulation. irregular bleeding is a typical side effect. Consider a virtual visit today to discuss better long term birth control plans to help avoid the need for emergency contraception.
