Q: pill after plan b

soo my gf and i had unprotected sex for a minute or two just messin around, no cum inside of her or anything, i'm positive, because i did not finish.. however the pre-ejaculate crap obviously was present as with 100% of other males... yadda yadda..
she took a plan b pill about 18 hours after the incident and the other one 12-13 hours later.
my question is..
is she most likely going to be alright?
and..
when can she start taking her birth control again? (she has been off of it for about 2 weeks or so b/c she ran out)
does she have to wait to get her period from the plan b pill or can she just start taking her BC when she gets a fresh pack on sunday (tomorrow)?
oh, and she just finished her period about 2-3 days before the sex occured, so i'm pretty certain she wouldnt be "ovulating." Am I wrong?

Taking Plan B was an excellent smart decision. Chances are much more low of her becoming pregnant because of this. Most likely, she will be alright. I would still take a test in 2 weeks if she does not have her period, but I think she'll be okay.

She can start taking birth control again right when she gets her next pack. However, you MUST use another form of protection(like condoms) for at least a week.
