Plan B One-Step pill is a backup plan, which is basically an emergency contraception in just one pill. The sooner you take it, the better it works and prevent any unexpected pregnancy ( if you’re not planning to have one).You should take it within 72 hours (3 days) after contraceptive failure or unprotected sex. According to a study, approximately 7 out of 8 women who would have gotten pregnant will not become pregnant after taking Plan B One-Step pill.
Plan B One-Step is believed to be safe, effective, and FDA-approved. It contains levonorgestrel, which is the same ingredient found in many birth control pills, not to mention it doesn’t contain any estrogen, only progestin. Additionally, it isn’t an abortion pill, and it won’t work if you’re pregnant already!! Additionally, it’s important to have another reliable source of birth control as it won’t work as a birth control by itself and it doesn't protect you from HIV or STDs. Last but not least, Plan B Pill was approved in 1999 by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.Until August 24, 2006, it was available by prescription only. However, after three years of debate, the FDA announced that the pill would be available to women 18 and older through behind-the-counter inquiries at select licensed drug wholesalers and pharmacies in a number of states, including Alaska, California, Hawaii, Maine, New Mexico, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and Washington !!
