What is plan b?

Question

I'm seeing it on here and really want to know what it is, someone please explain :))

Answer

Plan B One-Step is a type of emergency contraception. This is birth control that can prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex. People sometimes call it the "morning after pill." But you don't have to wait until the morning after sex to take it. In fact, Plan B is more effective the sooner you take it. It is a one-dose regimen: you take one pill. The pill contains 1.5 milligrams of levonorgestrel, which is used in lower doses in many birth control pills. How Does Plan B One-Step Work?
Depending upon where you are in your cycle, Plan B One-Step may work in one of these ways:It may prevent or delay ovulation.It may interfere with fertilization of an egg.
It is also possible that this type of emergency birth control prevents implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus by altering its lining.
Plan B One-Step is not the same as RU-486, which is an abortion pill. It does not cause a miscarriage or  abortion. In other words, it does not stop development of a fetus once the fertilized egg implants in the uterus. So it will not work if you are already pregnant when you take it.

Answer

Its a pill you take to avoid pregnancy after a slip up.  If you've had unprotected sex then you take the pill and it's full of hormones that mess your body up but it prevents pregnancy most of the time.  I don't recommend taking it though unless you have to
