How effective is Plan B?
Jan 19, 2013

Dr. Karim Nawfal Obstetrics & Gynecology
What you mean by "Plan B" is the morning after pill, the pill you take after having unprotected sex and want to prevent an unplanned pregnancy.
Plan B is not available in Lebanon, but another brand is.
If taken correctly (as soon as possible and within 72 hrs after intercourse) it is 95% effective
Remember this is only to be used in cases of emergency and not instead of contraception. It also does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases.
