A member asked:
My last period was 6/27-29th. i had a birth control method fail july 14th at about 11pm maybe 12am on the 15th. i took plan b on the 15th at about 2pm. how likely is it that the plan b worked at preventing pregnancy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Plan B is about 95% effective when taken within 72 hours of sex. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD.
