Hello,

Taking Plan B multiple times in once cycle decreases its effectiveness, though it would still reduce the chances of getting pregnant compared to not taking it.

So there is a chance, though it may be small, that you can get pregnant.

Plan B often delays periods. Regardless, it would be safe to start taking femitrone if you have decided to start continuous birth control with it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
