Is Plan B Still Effective If Taken Post Unprotected Sex During Ovulation?

My husband and I had unprotected sex Sunday night at 11:30 pm. I took an ovulation test around 12:30 and it said my LH levels were peaking/had peaked (with a bright red line next to the pink one on the test strip). I took a Plan B pull two hours later (at 2:30 am). What are my chances that Plan B was still effective even though I was within my fertility window/ovulation window?

Hi,

Plan B is effective when taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. So please keep cool. It would prevent pregnancy.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha, General & Family Physician
