Of course plan B helps in preventing pregnancy . Though she took plan B pills after her first act , she did not take it on the 3rd , however she would have done. But anyhow she was in the safe period. My advice is that that whenever there is an act of unprotected sex , please consult your doctor .There is plan B step 1 which is being followed these days.`
