For Emergency Contraception "I took the pill 2 days after having unprotected sex. My boyfriend came inside, so I was 100% sure I needed to take it. I took it 4 days after my period had ended. I am 5’0 & 95 pounds. I'm stating that because I think that played a big roll in the side affects I experienced. I started bleeding 5 days after taking the pill. I had cramps for over two weeks straight. My whole body ached & It made me fatigued. It was all severed. I threw up twice within the first 3 days. The pill did work. It made my next period 21 days late. The stress was real. Do not stress it works ! Just be aware that the dose is heavy & every body reacts differently to it."

For Emergency Contraception "Yesterday my boyfriend had unprotected sex, we did two rounds with a 3 hour gap between the rounds. After the second round, like 15 mins later, I took a Plan B and call me crazy but the minute he came inside I just felt it in my soul that I was gonna be pregnant. I've been having side effects of the pill such as nausea, constipation, tiredness, cramps and pains. I'll be back in 3 weeks to update you all."

For Emergency Contraception "I, stupidly, had unprotected sex the day before ovulation. He finished inside of me. I read all these articles about Plan B being ineffective if already ovulating, so almost opted out of taking it. 32 hours in, I bit the bullet and bought the pill anyway. It worked. This morning, 28 days into my cycle, I started my period. Emotionally, I was a mess leading up until today. I don’t know if it was the nerves, underlying issues, or the large dose of hormones from the pill. All I know, it worked and I was definitely ovulating. Thank god. Praying it works for you ladies too!"

For Emergency Contraception "Took the pill an hour after unprotected sex (he did not withdraw, I am not on birth control). I had period-like bleeding 7 days after taking the pill, which I assumed was my period coming early, but it only lasted about three days. I began to experience my usual period symptoms 10 days later (mild cramping, general achy-ness), but no period. My symptoms got SIGNIFICANTLY worse in the next few days. Extremely sore breasts, moderate cramping (constant), very light spotting. I had taken the morning after pill one other time in the past and did not experience any of these symptoms, which made me EXTREMELY worried that it hadn’t worked this time. My period FINALLY started over a week later (symptoms continued even after period came). This pill affected me physically and mentally. I was extremely anxious and most of my symptoms were not normal for my cycle. I promised myself to never take this pill again (yes, symptoms were that bad. I was absolutely convinced that I was pregnant)."

For Emergency Contraception "LADIES DO NOT PANIC!!!! I had sex with my bf 6 days before ovulation (4 weeks ago) and the condom slipped off and was inside me. He did not finish and I took the plan b pill hours later just in case because precum can be effective too. I had the symptoms and was nervous as ever reading reviews and all. My period arrived yesterday yay!!!!"

For Emergency Contraception "These reviews truly kept me from having a total meltdown and I was so hopeful I’d be able to come back to write one of my own - and here I am! TRUST. THIS. PILL. and trust these reviews! I swear if I hadn't found this page and so many encouraging words I would have continued to have a stress spiral and further delay my period. I had sex on 2/7 and the condom broke upon ejaculation. This was during my ovulation window, as my period was scheduled for 2/15, and we got a Plan B the next morning, about 7 hours later. For the past week I’ve been a hormonal mess, gained a few pounds from stress eating, and had extremely tender breasts. I found these reviews about two days ago and I swearrrr the amount of reassurance + comfort they gave me alleviated the worst of my stress, and I got my period in full yesterday(2/16)! I’ve never been happier to have cramps and feel my uterus shed every time I stand up LOL. THANK YOU TO EVERYONE HERE!!!! And if you’re worried, I promise this should work!"

For Emergency Contraception "•1/21 unprotected sex; no withdrawal, 1-2 a.m. (thanks, Wine) •Checked period tracking app. It was day 1 of my ‘fertile window’ took plan b 12 hrs later •Cycle is irregular, so unsure when I was ovulating •1/27 spotting, sort of brownish red quickly changed to light pink.

For Emergency Contraception "Taken this a few times. If you're freaking out...STOP. It works EVERY TIME. Sooner the better though. But because I know it can be taken within 72 hours...I actually forgot to by one time within 72 hours and it still worked. Took it 5 days afterwards and still did its job. Never had any symptoms except one time go slightly nauseous but it did not last long at all. "

For Emergency Contraception "I had unprotected sex right on the day of ovulation. I mean dead smack on when I was fertile. I took the pill 2 hours later and had NO SYMPTOMS whatsoever. I had to wait a whole 2 weeks for my period to come and I was afraid the pill wasn't going to work since I was really fertile. But 2 weeks later, on the EXACT day I was supposed to get my period, I got it! So this pill works! Phew! Relieved!"

For Emergency Contraception "I decided to write a review because I went through a hell of a situation and was fortunately able to overcome it, so with that being said, I had unprotected sexual intercourse a day before my ovulation was due, I took the Emergency contraception pill 5 hours later, I felt okay after the first 2 weeks of taking the pill but I had nausea and fatigue, but because I didn't see a period after 2 weeks of taking the pill, I began panicking, so I found these reviews and somehow I felt calm because my situation related to so many women here and they didn't end up pregnant so I could possibly also not end up pregnant, till I decided to just focus on other things because something in me kept telling me that I wasn't pregnant. So after a REALLY long wait, (1 month and 2 weeks) my period arrived finally. I couldn't be happier, so to every girl going through an experience of the sort, just keep calm (especially if you took the pill within 24 hours) everything will be alright."

For Emergency Contraception "Hey I know if you're reading this it is because you want to get your period too huh? Yes obviously so , for me I had had unprotected sex 2 days after my ovulation day (according to my flo app) I was so careless this time because I was depending on taking Plan B after and I was so excited to try out plain sex and I did & took the pill 14hours later. To my disappointment I googled and it said Plan B doesn't work after ovulation and research has proven it...honestly I was so scared that I cried because I'm still a college student and I live with my parents so it was a total disaster. But all thanks to the comments I saw on this site I tried to relax a bit tho it was hard and today I just got my period it has come a little bit earlier but at least I'm not pregnant"

For Emergency Contraception "I had sex on November 23, it wasn't until after we realised the condom had broken. Went to the pharmacy, I managed to take Plan B about an hour and a half after sex. I realised after that I was about 3 days before ovulating, I was at high chance of getting pregnant. And of course I had read that Plan B doesn't work if you have already ovulated. On November 30 I started bleeding, this went on for 5 days. I thought it was implantation bleeding because my nipples were also sore and sensitive. But it was a very light flow compared to my regular period with few blood clots. My period was not due for another 2 weeks as well. A week after this, I had a thick white creamy discharge. I had to wear a pad for this. This went on for a week. My period was meant to be due on the 12th of December. I experienced breakouts, cravings, mood swings, extreme bloating, mild cramps. I was convinced I was pregnant. I got my period today on December 20, eight days late and I couldn't be happier."

For Emergency Contraception "Hey girls! I've promised myself to write a review of this pill too. I took Escapelle - generic brand. My period ended on the 5th of Dec '19 and had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on the 8th. I took a pill an hour later. He pulled out in time but I was paranoid. We had protected sex on the 11th. Around a week after taking the pill, I bled. I was worried it was implantation bleeding. It lasted 3 days but was light. I panicked. I waited for my period that should fall on the start of the month, I got nothing. I was constantly bloated and nauseous. I thought it would come on the 14th of Jan, a month after my "short period" but it didn't. I couldn't focus and I cried a lot.. My boyfriend was supportive. Although he was scared too, he promised he'd stay with me. It made things better. My breasts were sore and my nipples hurt for days. Until finally, on the 27th of Jan, I got my period! It was normal. My period was 26 days late. If you panicked like me, it's fine to worry. Everything will be fine. :D"

For Emergency Contraception "I'm writing this for people who I know are probably trying to find relief in this reviews, and I did the same thing so I'm gonna offer my experience to help them out. Me and my girlfriend had unprotected sex, I was nervous so she took the Plan B about 26-28 hours and then the terrible waiting began. About day 7 and 8 she started spotting and cramping and then finally, on the 9th day she got her period. So relax, because this pill is very effective."

For Emergency Contraception "I had unprotected sex on my most Fertile day (June 9) according to flo app. I took the pill within two hours. The pill did work so it did not prevent pregnancy. By that I mean I had side effects spotting and thickened cervical mucus. I thought my period was late because of the large dose of hormones, I had a regular period. I was 33 days late when I found out I was pregnant"

For Emergency Contraception "WORKED!! I had unprotected sex while ovulating (smh) and my partner came inside of me. We both knew and I took the plan b between 5-8 hours after sex. The date was Nov 4. And I was expecting my period Nov 21. I spotted for 4 days before my period came. My period came but was 5 days late and was irregular. So yes I was scared. I also was having pregnancy symptoms like crazy. Extremely sore breast, fatigue, and nausea. Even tho my period came, it was over in 3 days and I was still a bit nervous due to it being irregular and the symptoms I was having. So of course I was freaking out and overthinking about the plan b not working. But I got my 2nd period on time and it was regular also negative test!! Best 50 dollars I’ve ever spent. Stop worrying girl and stop reading reviews! It’ll work. Give it time"

For Emergency Contraception "Me and my boyfriend had protected sex on April 15th. Unfortunately, the condom broke. I took Plan B One-Step about 20-30 minutes later (the sooner you take it the better it works). My period was due in another week, so the anxiety began. I was very sleepy and sick to my stomach for about 6 days but I just got my period! I've never been so happy. If you took the pill within a 24 hour time frame you have nothing to worry about. Stress will cause your period to delay even more. Just relax, you'll be okay. This pill is very effective. Accidents happen, and that's okay. Plan B is only for emergency use though. I am so glad women have the option to this."

For Emergency Contraception "I only was going to post a review if it worked so here I am. I used plan b and didn’t really have side effects the day I took the pill. I Was concerned for my weight the pill wouldn’t work. I missed my period that month and took three tests, all negative in three weeks. To my surprise the month after I got my period a little heavier than normal. I was an anxious mess the whole time but like other women said you have to trust the process."

For Emergency Contraception "I want to share my experience and hopefully ease your mind. I had sex with a friend on 02/16 it was the 9th day of my cycle (my cycle is always regular and varies from 28 to 30 days). We were a bit drunk so the condom got stuck inside of me with a lot of precum in it, I took the pill 6 hours after that. I had no immediate symptoms however a week after taking it my breasts were super sore and I couldn’t get up from my bed. I had no spotting but two weeks after taking the pill (one week before my scheduled period) I started to have intense cramps and mild bleeding, the next day I got my normal period! 6 days before scheduled! I got on BC immediately because honestly the pills makes you feel like you’re pregnant. Be safe and good luck :)!"

For Emergency Contraception "Promised myself I would come back on here to ease the minds of many as this was the only site that eased mine. Had totally unprotected sex on January 31st 2022 my husband fully came in me. I am not on any form of birth control. Checked my Flo app and was completely in my ovulation timeframe. Confirmed with white stretchy cervical mucus I was as fertile as I could be. Took Plan B less than 12 hours after and researched and panicked for the next 2 weeks. Stay off google it will make you SICK with worry. Took 2 negative pregnancy test on 2/11 and 2/15 and just started my period this morning 2/17/22. Stay off other sites and trust these real stories. And yes I had every “pregnancy symptom” in the book. Tender breast, nausea, slight cramping. The hormones from the pill can cause these symptoms too. Hope this calms someone down!"

For Emergency Contraception "I promised myself I would write a review on here because these comments really calmed my nerves over the last week. So I had lost my virginity on May 25th around 9pm. He did pull out but I was still worried about precum because he did not wear a condom so I went and got a plan b and took it within 19 hours. I was supposed to start my period 2 days after I had intercourse. After a week of anxiety and waiting I finally got my period today a week late! I did not have much symptoms other than mild cramping and some back pain as well. I also had some white discharge during that whole week. Take the pill as soon as you can! Take some deep breaths and pray. Everything will be okay. Good luck ladies!"

For Emergency Contraception "I didn't think I'd be writing this but I realized there's probably a lot of scared women/men out there who need some help. IT WORKS. IT TAKES TIME BUT IT WORKS! Stressing out was the worst mistake during this because it will cause your period to delay even more. It made me depressed and the cramps are terrible. But once I woke up and went pee this morning there it was. I've never been so happy to see my period!! Exactly a week after I had taken Plan B one step it had finally came. My advice is to be patient and do things to get it off of your mind. Looking at good reviews really helped me out!"

For Emergency Contraception "I had unprotected sex without realising it was the day that I was ovulating and took the pill within 17 hours. I experienced horrible stomach cramps, nausea and lower back pain but no period for 8 days and started to get really worried! I was convinced I was pregnant and kept looking at forums for information on pregnancy symptoms and implementation bleeding. Luckily on the 9th day I was very relieved to see I had started my period and I was having sleepless nights for nothing. It's an excruciatingly long wait but it's worth it so just hang in there. It definitely works, it may just take a while!"
