Family Planning Plus

Anytime you have unprotected intercourse, there is a risk of pregnancy. Plan B helps prevent pregnancy by delaying ovulation. Your next period may be a little earlier or later; it may also be a little spottier or heavier. This is common after use of emergency contraception. That you masturbated and scratched yourself with your fingernail has no effect on your risk of pregnancy.

If your period is more than 2 weeks late, do a pregnancy test, either at home or at a family planning clinic. Family Planning clinics offer pregnancy tests, STD screenings, gynecological exams and birth control at little or no cost, depending on your household size & income. Please call for an appointment if necessary.
