Hello.
Three days after my period ended, I had sex with my boyfriend. I wasn't ovulating. We used a condom, but it broke. We went and got the plan B pill right away, and I had taken the first pill less than an hour after it happened. I didn't feel sick while taking it like I was warned I might, and thought everything was fine. Now, 5 days later, I am experiencing some light spotting which is a dark brownish with a little light pink. My period isn't due for about 2 weeks. Is this implantation bleeding or just a side effect from the plan b pill? Please help, I am so scared!

I had unprotected sex on Tuesday but was feeling unsure if my boyfriend finished inside After poundering over the issue I felt it was beat to use the plan b pill and did so on Thursday. After taking the pill I got extremely tired and sleepy, my stomach felt fine but a few hours later I had very little, very faint, very light pink, blood on the toilet tissue when I used the bathroom. What does this mean? I've searched everywhere but no answer.

So I had missed two of my pills on my week two (Monday and Tuesday) I then had withdrawal bleeding! I had unprotected sex on Sunday around 3am I went and took plan b around 12 hours later! I was supposed to get my "period" on Wednesday and I got it but it's very light! Could this be implantation bleeding or a side effect of plan b and already having withdrawal bleeding this month?

Hello i took plan b 7 days ago (48 hrs after sex) we used spermicide and a condom but i discovered a hole in it after pulling out. I am now having the expected spotting/light bleeding. I have no ther side effects other than a missed period and frequent urination and th constant feeling of needing to pee. What can cause this, please help? I have also experienced some nausea. I have taken a preg test almost every day and all have read negative. I have no burning or discomfort when peeing. Is it possible that i may still be pregnant?

My period was May 1st-May 5th or 6th. I am not on the pill and we use condoms so on the 4th at like midnight we had sex but the condom broke. It was very late at night so I took the plan b one step pill like 9 hours later (being the next morning) My boyfriend said there was blood on the condom but I didn't care I still took the pill. My period like stopped after I took it. Then on the 9th I experienced blood which is a side effect of plan b. It's now June 2nd and I still don't have my period. I know it makes ur cycle go wonky but I'm still stressed. I also have lost 5lbs in the past two weeks so I know weight loss also promps irregularity. Wondering if this is normal.

Hello. So I had intercourse on May 7th my period ended on my May 4th. My bf had pulled out on time before he ejaculated in me I was just worried about the pre ejaculate. I had took Plan B within 40 hours on May 9th. I didn't really experience much seffects when I took it only fatigue and dizziness. Then couple days later I started to feel Nausea, more tired, moody etc for several days. Then it's been a week and couple days now I'm experiencing spotting which was brownish or even a little more blood then spotting and it's dark red blood it may not be my period because my expected date is on May 24. Also I've been having mild pains or cramps. So I'm worried if it's just plan b or its implantation bleeding?!..

So I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on May 6. I wasn't able to use plan b until 40 hours later. My period is very irregular meaning I can go 2-3 months without it and then sometimes it's a month after the other so I never really know. A couple days after I got some stomach pain, I have light bleeding started off brownish and now a little more red which is different from my normal period blood. I also have thrown up twice. Once was after eating something. I'm wondering if its side effect or if I'm pregnant HELP

Hello, I had sex on a Sunday, a week went by and I started my period the next Saturday. I am kinda weird and I haven't actually had my period since 2013. I thought I had already lost it.(I am a normal 20 year old) Ever since talking plan b my period is just getting heavier and it's the third day. I woke up at 5am with blood actually pouring and dripping down my thighs. I am also for the first time experiencing a little discomfort, which I guess you can describe as cramps. I am just worried cause it's my third day and I don't know if it's normal for it to be this heavy? Or for this to be happening.
