You've already used Plan B and tested negative for pregnancy, so you are likely not pregnant. If it was an ectopic pregnancy, you would be in severe pain before you would ever see signs of it in your abdomen.

Your colon is on the left side of your abdomen. It can stick out a bit if it is full. Your anatomy is not meant to be smooth like a table. You have different organs on each side and in each quadrant, so it is not identical inside or out.

You are freaking yourself out. Relax and stop driving yourself crazy. I suggest you contact a health care provider about birth control so you do not have to go through this fear again. Thank you for writing.
