    Morning after pill
    My girlfriend took the morning after pill because the condom we used broke I had not even been close to ******* but she wanted to be safe and she took PlanB with in less than 24hrs. Well with in 24hrs of taking the pill we had unrpotected sex and I was pulling out because I could tell I was going to ***, so I pulled out and managed not to ***. But my girfriend was worried about precum. My question is since she had taking the pill already and the unprotected sex was less than 24hrs of her taking the pill should we have anything to worry about or does PlanB have us covered?

    Odds are low that a pregnancy would occur, but I'm not quite sure what the two of you were thinking!

    One of the reasons the withdrawal method is not high on the list for reliability is due to using it exactly how you did. Waiting until you are just about to ejaculate before withdrawing can sometimes be too late. Odds are not high, but certainly pregnancies happen.
    However, since the plan b was just taken this helps reduce the chances.

    She can do one of two things... depending on how long ago this was, she could repeat the plan b... however this is not something you want to use frequently... or she can wait until her next period is due and see what happens.

    Do be sure to use proper protection every time you have sex... two forms of birth control will decrease your odds even more.

    First pulling out is not a method, there is plenty of sperm in the early fluids to do the job. Next Plan B is not 100 percent, so there is a chance, it is lower, but they call people who don't use birth control "parents"
