I have read numerous times that this is a period, and that it isn't. I have also read that Plan B affects your period by a week early or a week late. I am wondering if the bleeding that I experienced is my period or not, or if I am still due for mine coming up. I took Plan B a week ago today and I am still nauseous. Was it my period?
