Brief Answer:
Use plan B!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

Please, use plan B for emergency contraception. Junel is not adapted for this. It is rather being used for contraception and requires to be taken daily. Remember that the earlier plan B is taken after unprotected intercourse, the higher the chances of preventing against unwanted pregnancy.

Please, talk to your doctor about contraception. It helps prevent against unwanted pregnancies. Condoms offer additional protections against infections.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
