Plan B is an AMAZING drug - within 72 hours after accidental or unplanned or *god-forbid* forced unprotected sex, you can take Plan B high level birth control pills to prevent pregnancy. This is amazing. This is genius. This is smart. This is also the worst friggin hormonal melt-down I have EVER experienced. When I found myself irately screaming with zero self-control at my boyfriend, I thought, "What the hell wrong here?" Don't get me wrong, we've had fights before. This time, I felt like I had zero control over my emotions and body. It was atrocious. I had to unfortunately take it again 3 weeks later - thank you LifeStyles Ultra Thin - and when the beast roared its ugly head again, I was prepared and knew what to expect. I don't know if every woman has this reaction, but as a woman who doesn't use hormonal birth control, I was knocked on my rear.

Indeed. I am grateful for the control these drugs offer us, but prefer to use a natural method on the daily to keep me from swinging from the rafters & reserve hormones for emergencies! Natural methods are incredibly effective at prevention, but when human error or broken condoms are involved, supah hormones to the rescue.

Thanks for your SHARE RL. Unfortunately, as you have expressed so well, messing with hormones has dramatic consequences. Plan B is a super dose of hormones that impacts your body big time.
