Hi, So I am really freaking out, I think I might be pregnant???
I had unprotected sex october 9, and my period ended around the 7/8 of october. I took planB three days afterwords. My period is usually pretty regular, and I usually get it every 28 days. Its the the 9 of Nov and I haven't gotten my period yet. I had a light period a couple days after taking planB- was that my period?? I haven't had sex before this, so I have no idea what to do...

Yes, that would be fine.

The article was helpful thank you! So, should I wait another week before taking a pregnancy test?

Plan B can cause slight changes in your period, and it can begin a week late or a week early. You most likely experienced breakthrough bleeding after you took Plan B, since you were not expecting your period at that time.
