You're stopping the fertilized EGG (not embryo) from implanting.

IUDs and other forms of contraception work in exactly the same manner... why are they contraception and Plan B isn't?

You don't know if it's fertilized or not. Too soon. Gotta take it within a few days.


Grow up, lady.

Of course, the former is always preferable to the latter.

Umm duh? If there's an option that still lets people have sex without the negative consequences, then of course more people will do it. It's not a question of maturity or morality, just common sense.

That's right, you have to hurry up and take it just in case you actually did create a child.

I looked it up.

IUDs, regular birth control pills, and Plan B can all prevent pregnancy by stopping a fertilized egg from implanting in the uterine lining.

So how is Plan B different from the pill or an IUD if it acts in the same manner?
