I recently had unprotected sex multiple times and took Plan B within a few hours. My last period started on December 12th, and I'm worried I might have already ovulated, making Plan B ineffective. I weigh about 180 pounds and am 5'8", so I'm concerned about the effectiveness of Plan B for my weight. Should I consider taking Ella or starting birth control pills immediately? Additionally, I'm on my parents' insurance plan and want to keep this private. Will insurance companies notify my parents, and are there affordable alternatives like IUDs?

My vaginal discharge has always been normal, following a typical cycle. Recently, I keep getting thick, rubbery discharge 1-3 days before ovulation. It's mostly clear or white-ish, but sometimes has a brown or pink spot. I'm not sexually active, have been tested for STIs, and there's no foul smell. It's not yeast or bacterial overgrowth. I have a uterine fibroid. Should I be concerned?
