Q: 

Can Next Choice delay your period yet cause no side effects?

My boyfriend and I had sex on Saturday, and it was not until he pulled out that we realized the condom had a tear it in. Not by much, but enough that some may have gotten inside. Seven hours after it happened, I began taking Next Choice. My period was supposed to come this week, today, Wednesday, and it has not come. I have also had no side effects either. Does this mean that the medication has not worked yet? Also, how long can your period be delayed? Since my period was so close to the time of the accident, I don't believe I was fertile at all so that's one positive. I know it has only been 3 days since taking next choice, but I'd just like to be certain that everything is going to be okay.

I had unprotected sex with one guy Sunday and the next night I had sex with a different guy and the comdon broke. I took the next choice pill at 4:32 that morning and then I took it 12hrs later. I don't have a normal period. My last period was in august and its the 1st one I had this year. I have had no side effects and I feel bloated. Could that mean that I am pregnant or is it just normal to not have any side effects? I am really nervous and scared. I don't wannabe pregnant.

Hey me and my boyfriend had sex Thursday around 12 am. I took my birth control before I left. We had sex twice. Then when I got back home I took another one of my birth control pills. Ive been off birth control for 7 days.Later that morning around 11 I took another one. And 2:40 that evening I took next choice. I was having side affects like abdominal pain and headache. It stop. The next morning I was spotting, could this be that it's working?

Hi so on Friday the 17th me and my bf had sex an the condom broke... I am on birth control however I was on the 3 pill of the week of the brown pills (period week) and still didn't get my period (which is normal for me) . However after the condom broke I took plan b within 30 minutes ...itis now Monday the 20th and I have yet to get my period (with 1 period pill left ... Because I take them at night )... Is this becsuse I took the plan b and it is messing up my birth controll cycle? Or could I be pregnant ? ... As a side note the condom has never broken before and I always use protection... Please help I am panicking !

If I had unprotected sex on July 23rd took the first next choice pill at around 7pm that day and the second one at around 7am the next morning my period came as expected a day or two later like on the Th and lasted the normal 7 days... but I had no symptoms from the pill.. my friends are freaking me out saying it might not have worked and that you can still get your period and be pregnant ... should i be as worried as I am?

Hi. I had protected sex last Friday but the condom slipped off when he pulled out...so if any sperm got in, they probably couldn't get too far in I'm thinking. There was semen in the condom but I don't think there was any on me. I had to pull it out from inside of me..the opening was pretty close to my vaginal opening. I took Next Choice that Sunday night around 10:30. My period is a week late. Should I be concerned? Help please.

Just about all the comments on here say they got bleeding right after taking this pill. I have not...and am going on day 8 after taking it. I have some major sensitivity in my nipples...and this is what is always the first indicator that I am pregnant usually. The only other symptom is lower back pain...just like when I am pregnant. These symptoms have been going on for probably 4 days now and show no signs of letting up. I don't ever have sensitive breasts when I'm about to start my period either. Is this normal? I have never taken this before. Should I still be having side effects after 8 days of taking this? Thanks so much!
