You should not use plan B more than 6 times in one year. It is not designed to be used as a method of contraception. It is for EMERGENCIES. It's also rather expensive. Try a spermicidal jelly along with latex condoms. Is there a reason you're not already taking birth control? There are still several options other than the pill itself. Do you have a hard time remembering to take a daily pill? If your three urine tests have come back negative and you have brown discharge, you're likely not pregnant. Unless you took the tests too SOON (before the HCG levels were high enough to test for) a false negative pregnancy test is rare. Please look into the several birth control methods available. If you wish to discuss them with me, feel free to message me.

Hi there, I am a pharmacy student and we just covered the plan b pill in class lol.  I would not continue to use plan b as a birth control method and wouldn't continue to use it consecutivly (sp), its not inteneded for that.  You can use it more than once but its specifically used for emergency contraceptive.  I would consider going on birth control if you're having a hard time with the condoms.  Have you gotton a regular period recently?  If there was a fertalized embryo plan b will not allow it to attatch to your uterus, therefore preventing pregnancy, BUT, if you are already pregnant, plan b will not work.
