If you're not prepared for pregnancy, there are options to help prevent it, such as the morning-after pill, commonly known as Plan P. Here's how it works.

It’s a common misconception that after taking the morning-after pill, you’re in the clear to have more unprotected sex. Understanding how to use the Plan B pill to prevent an unplanned pregnancy is important. Using it correctly is even more crucial.

Pills, like Plan B and Aftera, are types of emergency contraception that can be used after unprotected pregnancy and brought over the counter. Others may require a prescription. 

At the very least, if your partner needs to take Plan B, you should go with her. It could be good for you to see what she experiences when purchasing this pill. It will make you think twice before casually suggesting she go pick it up.
