Progestin-only emergency contraceptive pills, like Plan B "morning after pills" reduces risk of pregnancy by 89%.If these pills are taken within the first 24 hours after sex, they reduce risk of pregnancy by up to 95%.Emergency contraceptive pills containing both progestin and estrogen (known as “combined” pills) reduce the risk of pregnancy by 75%.
(Be aware That the exact effectiveness of emergency contraceptive pills is difficult to measure and some researchers believe the effectiveness may be lower than that reported on package labels.)

Plan B can provide up to an 89% reduction rate in unwanted pregnancies if taken within the first 72 hours after unprotected intercourse. The sooner it is taken, the better.

Your above respondent is correct. Now before further unprotected sex, get on the BC pills, hon. At age 18, you really don't wish to get pregnant repeatedly, nor have a first trimester saline abortion in case of failure.
