Plan B and Opill Access for Students

Plan B & Opill: What You Need to Know

Emergency Contraception & Daily Birth Control — Free and Accessible to You!
Montgomery College now offers free Plan B (emergency contraception) and Opill (daily over-the-counter birth control pill) to currently enrolled students through our confidential request form.

*Note: This is NOT about your sex life. It’s about making sure you have access when you need it most.

What is Plan B?

Plan B is a morning-after pill that helps prevent pregnancy if taken within 72 hours after unprotected sex or birth control failure (like a condom breaking).

Important Timing for Plan B
Plan B is most effective within 72 hours (3 days) after unprotected sex or birth control failure.

While you can request Plan B online and receive it by mail, please know that delivery takes time. For the quickest access, consider picking it up in person from the Student Wellness Center.

The choice is yours — but remember, sooner is better for effectiveness.

• Works best the sooner it’s taken
• Does not end an existing pregnancy
• Will not impact your future fertility
• Can be taken regardless of your gender identity
