A change in your period is a common side effect of Plan B.
When taken as directed, Plan B One-Step® is safe for women. Some women will have mild temporary side effects that include:
Changes in your period
Nausea
Lower abdominal pain
Fatigue
Headache
Dizziness
Breast tenderness
These are similar to the side effects that some women have when taking regular birth control pills. Some women taking Plan B One-Step® will have menstrual changes such as spotting or bleeding before their next period. Some women may have a heavier or lighter next period, or a period that is early or late. If your period is more than a week late, you should get a pregnancy test.
If you should experience severe abdominal pain, you may have an ectopic pregnancy and should get immediate medical attention.
