A member asked:

My boyfriend and i had sex 2 days before my predicted ovulation day, we used the condom correctly, but should i buy a plan b pill?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not necessarily: If the condom was a proper fit and applied before any intercourse there would not be a need for extra BC. You can if you wish.
