Plan B, is emergency contraception you take within 72 hours after unprotected sex. It contains a high level of hormones that blocks ovulation and interferes with the implantation of a fertilized embryo and resets your menstrual cycle. It is not effective after 72 hours so you could very well be pregnant. Take a home pregnancy test which can be positive as soon as the first day of a missed period.
