Hello Anonymous,

No. Plan B was effective, you had a period and you are not pregnant.

Anonymous, depending upon where you were in your menstrual cycle, Plan B works by preventing or delaying ovulation, or interfering with fertilization of an egg.

It may prevent implantation of a fertilized egg in the uterus by altering its lining.

Vaginal bleeding indicates you are shedding the lining of the uterus and there is no pregnancy.

Regards,
Maryann
