A member asked:
Had unprotected sex a week ago, (took plan b) and again within the week, will plan b work? is there an alternative?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe, Maybe Not: Plan B is not intended to be used multiple times during a menstrual cycle. You will likely have some irregular bleeding. You may want to perform a pregnancy test about 3-4 weeks after your last unprotected intercourse. Your best alternative is not to have unprotected sex and find a suitable means of contraception.
