So back to the BCP thing real quick.
One of the plan B pills is just levonorgestril but in a higher dose. There is a BCP called Levlen that's all one level of hormone (levonorgestril) for the three weeks, then one week of placebos.
If you're on Levlen, you could double up or something (supposedly safely) to use as a plan B type deal if necessary. Theoretically.
If you use another type of BCP you'd have to have your doctor tell you which ones because each week is a different hormone level and blah blah blah.
Then after you do this, you come up short at the end of the month on your pills and it screws up your whole cycle.
So why not just go to the pharmacy and buy plan B which you don't need a prescription for, not mess up the rest of your year's worth of pills OR, better yet, use a condom?
