I am on the combination pill (Qlaira) and took Plan B on 5/4/22. How long after taking Plan B should I wait to have unprotected sex assuming I get back on my pills schedule? I am getting an implant (Nexplanon) inserted on 5/16/22. Could Plan B affect the effectiveness of Nexplanon? Do I delay my appointment?
