i took a plan b right after unprotected sex, until i heard about ovulation and i was hands down the most stressed I’ve been this past month. but, started my period and no baby. the plan b did cause a cyst in my ovary, and i started my period a week early. plan b’s are not healthy for you, and the cyst in my ovary causes me so much pain. I’m sticking to protection from now on.

[@AskAwayHealth]

There are different options, including condoms, abstinence, coil, etc. Please do stick to what works best for you mentally and physically.

Will plan b still work if I took it on ovulation day? It works as long as it wasn't the day after ovulation right? Also the first time we had unprotected sex during my fertile window was 4 days prior to me taking a plan b.

[@AskAwayHealth]

There's a chance it could work by slowing sperm down. On ovulation day, it is less likely to work than if taken at least two days before ovulation.

Hello, can I please ask I took the morning after pill on 30july 2 weeks after my 13 july period which was 2 weeks before my ovulation 15 august I then noticed light bleeding 8 august for 4 days a week after taking the pill which left 1 week to my 15 august ovulation then my period came on 6-11 September and ovulation period was 20-26 September I then took the pill on 3 October after my ovulation and did not see any bleeding. My next period was supposed to be 12th October but today 29 oct im 18 days late but i have been having pre period symptoms that I always have, i took the pregnancy test this morning but it has a faint T line . Could it be positive, could i be pregnant ? I’m confused because I’m having pre period symptoms for weeks now And could taking the pill in July and in October have shifted my cycle that much? Does the pill work if taken a week after ovulation . Sorry for asking too many questions but hope i can get answers. Thank you🤞🏽🤍

[@AskAwayHealth]

Plan B can sometimes cause changes in your menstrual cycle, including delayed or irregular periods. Hormonal fluctuations from the medication are often temporary, but if your period hasn’t returned or you’re concerned, it’s a good idea to check in with your doctor for further evaluation.

Can you take the morning after pill if your on your period?

[@AskAwayHealth]

You can take the MAP any time in your cycle. During the period, most women are outside their fertile window and very unlikely to be ovulating. But some women have a short period, and short menstrual cycle so yes, it is a good idea to take the pill after having sex during the period. Sperm can survive up to 5 days in the woman after sex, so there may be a chance - though very small - of pregnancy in some women.

[@Sp4rksP3ople]

Are the chances of pregnancy high if taking the plan B one day before my ovulation day. I had unprecedented sex with my parner the day before ovulation (so during the fertilization day.) Will I still get pregnant even after I take the pill.

[@AskAwayHealth]

The pill does best taken before ovulation. That said, to a lesser degree it may still reduce the chance of fertilisation & implantation so I wouldn't totally give up on it if thats all you had. Do a test 2-3 weeks after, please. However, for birth control after ovulation that has a good chance, its the copper coil - can be inserted within 5 days after ovulation or sex.

There's a small chance, but before ovulation usually best recommended.

[@jhoeybacs4417]

I found the TikTok content about yesterday that say 1 days before ovulation and she got pregnant and have a pretty baby so there is a chance that get you pregnant (not sure)

[@AskAwayHealth]

Hi, yes it's possible to get pregnant after taking the pill on ovulation day. Why? Because on ovulation day, the best chance you have is - after having sex, you take the pill BEFORE the time of egg release. But, unless you are in a laboratory, we don't know if you ovulate at 4 am or 4 pm on ovulation day. The pill needs to be in your system MANY hours before the egg is released to work. If you take it AFTER egg release on ovulation day, it's less likely to work. Please watch the video again for my full explanation. Taking another pill the following day may not work because the egg has already been released. And the pill may not be so good at stopping fertilization and implantation. So is it worthwhile taking the pill at all? Yes, it's worth taking it if you do not have an option like the copper coil or Ella, which are more likely to work at that time.

Vasty, this depends on whether or not you have a regular period pattern. You will have to look at the dates of your periods over the last few months to see if your periods arrive around the same time. If you are regular, ovulation usually arrives 12-14 days from the first date of the last period, and you can easily work out the date. But if your periods do not arrive around the same time each month, it's not so easy to identify ovulation date.

Hello Doctor, my partner and I had unprotected sex and realized she was ovulating. I ejaculated outside but she told me a little bit of semen was inside. We took the plan B pill an hour or less after we realized this. We are terrified and know we have to do a pregnancy test 2/3 weeks after that night. Obviously the pill isn’t guaranteed to work 100% but statistically on a rough guess what is our chances of getting pregnant and what more can we do?

[@AskAwayHealth]

Hi, it’s not something we can predict with any statistical accuracy given the fact that we don’t know the moment of egg release on that day and other factors that affect the pill or the user. There’s a chance the pill could work, but we don’t know to what degree. However, the most effective method is a Copper coil, it can be used within 5 days after Sex or after ovulation.

Hi, we can’t accurately predict the moment of ovulation (except in a laboratory), but yes, the pill has good chance of working if taken on the same day and a few hours before ovulation. Also remember, the pill may prevent fertilisation or implantation to some extent. As I explained in the video, the only way you can tell is with the pregnancy test so please remind her to do one especially if her period is delayed by 7 days or more.

Hey Doctor, I had unprotected sex yesterday and took the Plan B an hour after sex. According to my period app, I ovulated six days ago. I wonder if the pill will still be effective or if the egg is already dead. Thank you!

[@AskAwayHealth]

After 48 hrs from ovulation, the egg is most likely dead so a lower risk of pregnancy. However, apps are not 100% accurate, plus even women with normal cycles may ovulate at a slightly different time each month - what if you'd ovulated later than your app suggested? Backing up with plan B ( not so effective after ovulation), the coil or a regular method can help.
