Did you Know?
  1. Sperm can live in the female reproductive tract for 3 to 5 days.¹ ²
  2. Plan B®; One-Step is NOT the abortion pill (RU-486).
  3. A woman's chances of becoming pregnant from unprotected sex are about approximately 20-25% each cycle–even if it's her first time.³
  4. Douching, washing or urinating after sex does not decrease the chances of conception, as sperm enters the cervix immediately and is out of reach.4
  5. A 28-day cycle is only an average; every woman's ovulation cycle is different and varies.¹ ³
  6. A woman can become pregnant from unprotected sex that takes place anytime from 5 days before ovulation to 1 day afterwards.¹

Plan B® One-Step does not protect against HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Side effects may include changes in your period, nausea, lower abdominal pain, fatigue, headache, and dizziness. If your period is more than a week late, you may be pregnant. You should not take Plan B® One-Step if you are already pregnant. Plan B® One-Step should not be used as a routine birth control, as it is not as effective.
