hello, i have a question regarding the morning after pill and i need a answer asap, I'm totally freaking out and really worried!
my last period was August 12th and i had sex the following week on the 21st, unfortunately the condom split, neither of us had realised and my boyfriend finished inside me. the next morning i took the plan B pill, approximately 13 hours after the incident, and about a week after that i started bleeding, it felt and looked like a normal period but it only lasted 3 days (i don't think this was a period because my periods usually last for 5-6 days and it was about 2 weeks before expected date, plus i have been told that bleeding after the pill is normal and common and not to consider it a period for that month). i was due for my September period on the 9th but my cycles are almost always irregular and come between 3-5 days late but from today my period is about 11 days late, i haven't yet taken a pregnancy test but is there a high chance of pregnancy? feel free to add some advice as I'm 16 (17 in 2 months) and cannot have a child!

Hello and thank you for choosing EmpowHer,
September 19, 2015 - 10:44pmThe fact that you did bleed after taking Plan B is a good sign that you are not pregnant. You are correct in that its a common side effect. The hormones in Plan B can also affect your following period which is most likely why it is so late. Its definitely not due to pregnancy, so you don't have to worry about that. I know its worrying not to get your period but give it time.
Your period will return to normal soon.
