A member asked:
If i take plan b and im ovulating will it work?

Plan B is very effective, particularly if used immediately after unprotected intercourse (the sooner the better), but it is not foolproof. There is still a significant chance of pregnancy if you are ovulating. Needless to say, using effective contraception is the better way to go, although I suspect you already understand that. Good luck.

Plan B is about 95% effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within 72 hour of sex. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex : https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/safer-sex-guidelines Get HPV vaccine.
