Me and my boyfriend were having sex when the condom broke, we didn't notice it and he finished inside me. I went and got the morning after pill right away. I experienced terrible nauseous, and the next day i thought i started spotting a bit. It didnt stop and now it has turned so heavy so i am assuming it is my normal period. However i am not due to get mine for about 2 and a half more weeks. I am wondering if this is normal, if it really is my period, and if this will mean my cycle will be messed up or not. I wanted to go on the pill but now i am wondering if that too could only mess with my body more.

( I have used the morning after pill once before, and i experienced none of this, everything was normal.)

Okay I had unprotected sex on July 3rd, 5days after my period. I took the plan B the morning of July 4th. On Monday July 10th I got what I thought looked my my period but it only lasted 2 days. I wasnt supposed to start my period for another 15 days. Is there any way I can be pregnant?

I had an unprotected sex last June 17 and i took ecp three days after it but after a few hours of taking it, i had an unprotected sex again but I didn't drink ecp. On June 23, yes, i had an unprotected sex again but tjis time, i only waited for a few minutes before drinking ecp. But for those three unprotected sex, im sure that he didn't ejaculate inside me because i saw him ejaculate right in front of me. On june 28, i had a red discharge and it continued for three days. The flow is medium. Is there any chance that i might be pregnant?

same situation- it sucked. 2 days after taking a crappy cvs brand plan b, i began spotting which turned into a full-on period that lasted a week, then another week of spotting; and now after havibg just gotten over the spotting, i am getting my regular period (which occurs normally the last week pf month).

i read online that plan b induces bleeding ("breakthrough blood" or something like that) but the bleeding is not your period, it is the lining.

I had sex with my boyfriend for the first time, a week from today. It was not protected. And while he didn't ejaculate inside of me, I went out and bought an emergency contraceptive. I took it right away. We had sex again on Thursday but a condom was used. I didn't take the pill after that. Since taking the pill, I had some discharge and spotting at first but yesterday it's as if I started my period like 9 days early? Is this because of the pill! Am I pregnant! I'm so worried and confused right now.

i had unprotected sex on May 5th, but he didn't come inside of me and two days later i took the plan b pill. It's now May 13th and i'm bleeding heavily, however my period ended on May 6th. Could my period be this early, when i usually start around the 28th/ end of the month? I'm very concerned and i hope i'm not pregnant. Could i be?
