My bf and I had unprotected sex right atfer I just ended my period I took plan B pills and the next day I got my period again even though I just had it 3 days earlier. But now I still haven't gotten my period. Is it possible that I'm just late?

Can anyone please help me? I'm thinking I'm just going to get my period really late. Or is it possible that I am pregnant? Answers asap please.

I HAVE THE SAME SITUATION AS YOU!
I was on the tail end of my period when I took Plan B. My period ended for one day, and now I have really heavy bleeding and its been like 4 days so far. Im worried that this is irregular, but it stopped for you? im worried that its going to mess up my period for next time as well..

I had unprotected sex on September 27th early in the morning, I'm not on birth control but Monday morning I immediately went to get Plan B. I got it and took and was about a week - probably less from getting my period. On October 1st I started getting what I thought was a period but it was super light ... however it lasted until the 5th - about a normal cycle for me. However it was super super light, which is rare. Usually I have at least one heavy day. Now I'm freaking out. Is there a chance I'm pregnant? Or am I just freaking myself out?

Hi anonymous,

Thank you for your question. Anytime you take a hormone treatment, it may have an effect on your menstrual period. If you have any fear of pregnancy, take a pregnancy test just to be sure. It will certainly ease your mind as well as confirm any doubts. I hope this helps.

Hi, ....i got my usual period on September 4th. it ended around the 10th, and the 11th my boyfriend and i had sex..but the condom broke. That same day i took Plan B (about 4 hours after having sex). The 12th i had bleeding (which i know is a side effect of Plan B). It lasted about four days.

I have a very regular period. I would have been expecting it around the 5th of this month. Would my period still come on time, even after the bleeding after taking Plan B? or would it come late?

i hope to hear back from anyone on here soon..

I have a similar situation. Almost three weeks ago as of this sunday, me and my boyfriend had protected sex however, right as he was about to finish the comdom broke and he finished but as an added reassurance I took the Plan B One Step pill just in case within two hours after it. Some of the symptoms included spotting, although, starting 3-4 days after I took the pill I started doing so and now it is two weeks later and I haven't stopped yet. I'm supposed to get my period around October 4th which would be my normal 28 day cycle but I also know it will either be late or early so I guess all I'm asking is, is it okay that i've been spotting so much and will I still get my period and more importantly, I believe all I really want is reassurance that nothing is going to happen. If anyone could help me or shed some light on ym situation, I would really appreciate that. Thank you.

its possible that it is just because of the pill. If you took it an hour later, it should be pretty effective. When i took the pill i was told that it can make ur period up to a week late.
