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