Q: 

Plan B pill

I had a 28-day cycle last month. Had unprotected sex on CD9 on Wed and took a Plan B pill today (Fri) which is CD11. I just went to the bathroom and noticed some EWCM. I'm concerned if I'm still going to ovulate and get pregnant. Please help!

By taking Plan B, you have just given yourself a very large dose of hormones. Plan B contains a very large amount of the same hormone found in oral contraceptives. You will notice changes in your menstrual cycle because of this. Re-read the insert in the Plan B packet. You should familiarize yourself with all the side effects. Even if you were ovulating, you would only be concerned about getting pregnant if you had unprotected sex again.

Hi,
You took Plan B, so you will not ovulate or get pregnant, for now. If you don't want to get pregnant in the near future, avoid unprotected sex and use birth control. I am sorry but I do not know what you mean by EWCM.

Thank you for your reply. EWCM is Egg White Cervical Mucus....the clear egg white discharge women usually get before ovulation. So is that a sign that I'm still going to ovulate?
