Question
Hi
   I had an abortion on Feb 7 and had unprotected sex with my boyfriend Feb 12 and took plan b the next day around 6pm .. am I at risk to become preg again ? Will the plan b work ? I am scared that I have taken so many meds since I had the abortion pill as my procuder of choice for my abortion

Answer
Dear Jennifer,

I can't tell you for sure if the Plan B is going to terminate your pregnancy. I'm not sure what you mean about taking many meds. Are you worried about them interacting with the Plan B. You can read the article on http://www.optionline.org about Plan B or the morning after pill. I don't recommend it but you have already taken it but consider what this article says if there is a next time considered. Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com so we can talk more and you can update me. Hope to hear from you soon.

P.s. Did you go in for a post abortion checkup?
