I took plan B on July 23rd (about 72 hours late), got my period the next weekend around July 28th and had a light period for a few days (it seemed sorter than usual). Then just recently started bleeding again around August 4th. At first it was just kind of spotty, until last night when it got much heavier. I've also been having some strange abdominal pains that seem different from cramps. Do you know what the cause could be? Is this a sign of miscarriage? Or could it be related to plan B? Thanks
After taking plan B and having my period I started bleeding again a week later. Is this miscarriage?

So I took the pill twice in a month
I had my period at the beginning of the june and then again at the end of the month
Now I’m worried I’ve been feeling nauseous and i haven’t started waiting to see of i start at the ens of the month (finger crossed) I’m just worried
I’m probably over thinking and making my self sick
What happened?
I took plan b like a month ago and now I’ve had my period for more than 10 days and it won’t stop!!!
So basically I had a scare 3 weeks ago I didn't know so I took plan b first time week later I got my period on time January 20 lasted till 26th and on 27th 1 am I had sex he wore condom next morning he said it broke so I took plan b 11 hours later. It's been a week now and I have been fighting stomach virus but last night I noticed pinkish red and then like several hours later it was bright deep red and I put pad on and today it's been blood when I peed and clots but it doesn't smell like a period u know. Is this normal? Am I okay?? My boobs feel like what they feel like on my period and I'm cramping bad
I took this crazy pill june 5 , and I've been cramping and bleeding since , it's almost a month. I'm confused and alarmed, and famished. When does it stop??? I'm on vacation and it sucks ! I can't have sex , praying it's nothing serious , I've been trying to ride it out , but I'm going to the doctor next week if it doesn't STOP! I'm a naturalist so I'm already frustrated that I had to do this , but the condom broke and I'm not ready for another baby . After 9 years I have a 2 year old from the pull out method . I got away with it long as I could smh. So I have a 22 yr old and a 2yr old . But these cramps this morning is no joke! Praying it's not a tubal pregnancy or nothing. Anyone else experience bleeding over a month ?
What happened in your case?? I took pan B two-three days after my period stopped. Three days later, I started bleeding - it started out as spotting then eventually amounted to a very heavy, clotted flow (sorry tmi) but that bleeding lasted consistently until the time of my last cycle - on the last day of my expected period the bleeding stopped. The bleeding did vary between extremely light spotting and e
And extremely heavy - this was about two weeks ago that it finally stopped. But now I have extreme bloating, nausea, extreme fatigue and a heavily fluctuating appetite. Could I be pregnant? Please help! Very worried.
Im having this problem just now scrolling for answers... i just had my period last week from the 1-6th had sex on the 9th took the pill that same day and started spotting on the 12th now heavy flow today is this going to last all month till my next period???
I had an incident and This was previous December 28, 2013. It was 1:00 in the morning and I decided to have unprotected sex with my boyfriend. We had been using the pull out method ( I know very careless ) and this time he got a little too excited and ejaculated inside of me. I was really scared and so that same afternoon on the 28th around 2:00 p.m, I went and got the plan b pill. My period was due on the 1st of January and I thought I was pregnant because it didn't come right away. I had all off the symptoms I would experience when my period would come, but it never came I stressed myself out and cried for days and FINALLY JANUARY 5, 2014 , aunt flow paid me a visit and im so very happy. Ladies DO NOT stress yourself out. Give it time.If it's more than a week late please go and take a pregnancy test to be sure. But , the pill worked for me. Just pray and dont let the mistakes happen again, learn from them.
So what ever happen in your situation "katblack500"??? My girlfriend is going through EXACTLY the same symptoms and we are worried. We just want a bit of reassurance so let me know what resulted in your case. Did it go away after a few more months. Were you pregnant? Or was it just still side effects from the Plan B pill. Please respond. I know the usual answer to go to the doctor and she is. She has an appointment in a few weeks but we just want to know what happen with you for now.
I added you as a friend so I could ask you about this. Can you add me back?
hey am going through the same situation can u tell me what happen to ur girlfriend ... my girlfriend periods doesnt stop on regular day is there any problem with that or should i take her to doctor ...
on other hand i couldnt take her to hospital she has to go with her mother so will she knows abt that we did sex r nt reply me am v much scare
Currently I am going through the same thing could you tell me when the pain in the stomach stopped and if your gf was pregnant
Everything went back to normal after a few months/cycles. We called the hotline for Plan B that day just for some reasurrance and they did make us feel a bit better. I think this is the number 1-800-330-1271. Like everyone else says going to the doctor is the best thing to do to make sure everything is fine. In our case everything went back to normal after a couple months/cycles. It felt like forever and we constantly worried but everything has been fine since.
I know its a bit late but I would like to know what happened to you because I am going through the same thing right now and kind of nervous, and worried.
No, Plan b wont terminate a pregnancy if it has already occured before you take the drug. It is likely just the Plan b screwing up your system. Plan b is a large dose of hormones and can screw up your cycle for months after you take it. You can expect all kinds of weird irregularities. Things should straighten out in a few months and you will become regular again.
