that's a bit like going to have your appendix removed before you have appendicitis. it is sooo much easier (and more effective) to prevent an unintentional pregnancy that to take a hormone like plan b. remember that preventing conception is just one part of this equation. you also need std prevention and plan b will not to that. what should be done "before hand" is for the woman to be one an oral contraceptive (or another effective form of contraception) and insist that her partner use a condom 100% of the time/ if plan b was the answer then it would be called plan a.
can you use emergency contraception before sex? (ex. plan b). hello. i am doing a a health issue research paper (extra credit) that would be shared with the class if it is a well written and informed paper. i thought this would be an interesting question to propose. i know that some emergency contraception you can take up to 3 days after. however are there any statistics or studies or information about taking it before hand. thank you for your help in advance.
