I had unprotected sex the day my period ended (no blood) It was only for a few minutes and he pulled out but said he wasn't close to ejaculation. But after so much paranoia and research I found out about pre-cum. I took Plan B one step about 2 days later (48-50 hours) After 7 days after taking it I noticed brown-blood like on my underwear. But gradually turned into regular blood and heavy bleeding at that. It only lasted 2-3 days. I am still very worried about this bleeding. Is it my period? Does it mean I'm not pregnant? Please give as much detail.
Had sex day after period. Took Plan B and bled a week after again?

Taking the Plan B or morning after pill on the first or second week of your menstrual cycle will cause you to have spotting in between your period- about a week after you take the morning after pill and your next period may come early. Taking it on the third or fourth week may result in spotting as well (maybe no) and your period might come late. It is highly unlikely you will get pregnant when you take the morning after pill if you haven't ovulated or am far off your ovulation. You should take note of your ovulation (its when you have white or clear watery discharge and some uterus cramping. Most accurate is when you feel a twinge in either side of your uterus and your left breast has a twinge straight after). If you spotted, you're definitely not pregnant.
I took the morning after pill a few days after my period and what I wrote above is exactly what happened to me. (I was unfortunate to have to take the morning after pill again- this was after my spotting was over). My period came as predicted but my cycle is always regular. My next cycle was as usual, but I experienced really bad PMS and spotted before my period too. It can mess up your cycle a bit. I'm all good now and to anyone reading this, you shouldn't worry too much.
You don't need it if he didn't came in you anyway. If you're very near your period, you're not fertile, so don't stress your body. Hope this helps!

Chances are that that is her period because she took the plan b so close to her next period usually when a girl bleeds due to the plan b its when she is towards the beginning of her cycle your girl was closer to the end. I took plan b two times and the first time I was closer to the end of my cycle and I bled because of my period not the plan b.

I had intercourse on the 7th day of my cycle which was around 2 days after finishing my period, condom got stuck inside me so the next day less than 24 hours I took plan b. One week later I experienced light bleeding at first which then turned heavy and lasted for around 4-5 days, despite my predicted period wasn't due for another two and a half weeks. I marked that period down and 3 weeks later I got my period again. Just keep in mind that your next period may be different I experienced really bad cramps and heavier bleeding on my second period after taking plan B.
If you had a regular to heavy bleeding a couple of days - week after taking the pill then you shouldn't be pregnant, also I would mark your next period as a couple of weeks from the induced period you got from the pill

did your period come?

Hi guys, so just like everyone else on here I'm currently going through the same situation. I've had plenty of pregnancy scares, and 2 bad ones (condom completely ripped, and he ejaculated in me) so I took plan b. Both of these situations were about a year ago, for both my period was just delayed by like a week.
I ended my period August 13/14... so there was no blood on the 14. My boyfriend and I had sex that same day. We always check our condoms for holes after we are done with them. After 2 years of "unnecessary" checking we had one with a pinsized hole, and cum could seep through. So within the hour I took Plan b. Yesterday I noticed I was bleeding quite a lot... and it's only been 6 days between my last period. And I've never had an early period of 3 weeks!!! So I am freaking out. I'm the type of person to try/want to self diagnose for everything. And I'm so scared it might be implantation bleeding.
Because the timing is right, the blood was brownish and somewhat pinkish.
The responses on here have calmed me down a bit, but it frustrates me that no one has replied back. Sorry for the long post, but I wanted to give as much information/detail possible. I will keep you guys posted.

Something similar happened to me. My menstrual ended 4/2 and I had sex that night and the condom popped so I took plan be the morning of 4/3. Now, on 4/8 i noticed dark brownish/reddish substance when I peed earlier, I don't know how long it will last but reading these posts makes me feel more comfortable

I Know im late but can i please get some help.
okay so me and a girl had unprotected sex. I did not ejaculate in her im positive of that. about 20 minutes after we did this i purchased the One Step Plan B and she took it, she did not vomit but did experience nausea after the pill for a couple of days or so. She has irregular periods.she had her period jan 24th, then we had sex the following week, then 2 weeks after we had sex she had her period (so 3 weeks after her last period) ONLY reason im worried is becuase some people say that some women may experience period like symptoms when pregnant or is it that some women may experience period like bleeding but not the symptoms? idk im not too informed on that issue but she is pretty sure that it was her period. what are my chances of her not being pregnant? i know i should have never done that, caught up in the moment. PLEASE HELP

Hello ladies, please don't worry, I've had pregnancy scares numerous times. My boyfriend and I don't use protection because I am on the pill, but there have been occasions where he has lacked in the pull out method. I have taken the plan B twice and experienced bleeding both times. The reason for this is because when you have your monthly menstrual cycle, the lining of your uterus is shedding because you are not pregnant. If you were pregnant, you would not have a period because you would need the lining of your uterus for the egg to attach to the wall to house the fetus. The plan b forces you to have a semi menstrual cycle if this makes sense. Once your period ends, you began to ovulate and become more fertile and more likely to become pregnant because an egg is released awaiting sperm to fertilize. If this does happen, this is where the pill comes into use because that wall of your uterus needs to shed so the egg will detach.
Most of the time we are all paranoid and aren't pregnant in the first place but we still take the pill just to be safe. Moral of the story, the bleeding is normal. Hope this helped ! :)
