You were not at risk for becoming pregnant when you had intercourse 2 to 3 days before your period was due. To become pregnant, there must be a released mature egg. In your situation, ovulation was long past, about 2 weeks in the past, With no egg waiting, there was nothing for sperm to fertilize.
In the menstrual cycle, in the absence of pregnancy, progesterone levels drop and your period starts.
By taking Plan B, you gave your body a blast of hormone and most likely offset the normal balance, thus causing a delay in the start of your period.

Hello Anonymous,
The light spotting is not implantation bleeding.

You can wait or consult your gynecologist.
