"this morning i got my period!! one day early and so happy to have it. in the heat of the moment my partner and i were careless with our birth control. it was week 2 of my cycle. i took the plan b pill 17 hours after intercourse. i read that taken within 36 hours it is 95% effective. that fact along with all of the positive reviews on here got me through the next few weeks without completely freaking out. now i can add my own positive review, phew!! i had minimal side effects. nothing i would make a fuss about!"
