Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I wanted to share a positive post on here. I took Plan B about 20 hours after unprotected sex. For 3 weeks, I panicked. I saw no spotting at all, except for one day after taking it (which I swore was implementation bleeding). I was also sick to my stomach and my boobs hurt. After several pregnancy tests and being a week late, finally got my period. The wait almost literally had me on edge, but never so glad to get my period. Never again taking this chance. Please try to stay calm and trust the pill and process. I took this pill literally on during ovulation and it still worked. Very effective. Just remember everyone's body reacts differently to the hormones."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I am 23, 5’8, 255 pounds .. I had unprotected sex on February 15 , according to my tracker it was two days before ovulation at approx 10 pm ,I took the pill the next morning at 12/ 1 in the afternoon .. I took it on a full stomach and for the most part I didn’t have any side affects ... I read reviews and forums like this and was scared to death !!! Don’t do it get off of here !. I was scared that it wouldn’t work because of my bmi .. I was very moody and depressed some days and I was urinating very frequently .. every two hours almost .. my discharge was very thin and watery with no stretch .. .. I am here to tell you it messes your body up but it works my cycle came on this morning on time it is heavy ! But I’d take a heavy cycle over being pregnant. Will be going to back to get birth control soon !!"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "Ladies don’t stress, most of the time this pill works! I’m writing this because I know how much I stressed waiting for my period to finally arrive and these reviews calmed me down and made me feel like I wasn’t alone. My only side effects were fatigue and a few days of spotting starting around 5 days after I took the pill. Finally after about 2 weeks past my expected period it finally came! Try not to stress, which I know is hard, but stress really does only delay your period more. Hope this helps!"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I had sex the day before ovulating and the day of ovulation. My boyfriend ejaculated in me on both days. I had to take a plan b on both days. The pills work. My only symptom was sore breast and I got my cycle on time. Please trust the pill and don’t believe that it doesn’t work during ovulation because it does!! I was up stressed till my cycle came and it came on time."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I had unprotected sex last month on the 26th at 12AM and according to my period app I was ovulating. I should’ve told him I wasn’t on birth control, the same day he brought me a Plan B and I took it right away. I was really anxious. I had a few symptoms. The first day it made me really sleep. A week after I took it the symptoms continued I had mild cramps, bloated, had mood swings. The waiting game was hard seeing if my period was gonna show up on time. Now today, my period started at day early supposed to gotten my period June 8th. Never been so happy to see blood! I’ve seen a lot of people say the pill won’t work. If you’re ovulating that’s not true so do stress yourself out the pull will work"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "You’re probably scrolling right now super anxious and stressed, so I say calm down and let the pill work it’s magic. I’m certain it was on ovulation day, the condom broke, he said he did a risky pull out but I honestly don’t trust pulling out method out at all!!! Lol I just don’t trust anyone enough to beat biology like that and I don’t even want to think about children till I’m 30. I dragged him to immediately buy me Plan B afterwards(bout 20min later) and took it in the parking lot. About 5 days later I started to get super bloated, loss of appetite, crazy mood swings, nausea, tender breast, and rise in temperature. Another 4 days and cramping arrived, I saw spotting (like literal red dots) on the 4th day and that definitely made panic but the next day I saw clots and regular flow. Symptoms were awful but It did it’s job and that’s all that matters."

My period was suppose to be here by August 21 and it didn’t I panicked a lot like a lot! My period came after 14 days late it started Sept. 3rd! The side effects to me were terrible! I had anxiety attacks, I was always nervous, nausea, bloated. But it worked! I never plan on using it again though! Take a deep breath you will be fine! Just don’t stress so much like I did I know it’s impossible but just try❤️"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I told myself I would share my experience if it worked because these reviews were the only thing keeping me sane. I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend on the 14th which was when I was ovulating. Keep in mind I’m not on any birth control nor did we use a condom. I know dumb. We bought a plan b and I took it an hour after we finished. For two weeks I was a mess. Especially when I found out it doesn't work during ovulation. I had extreme nausea, my boobs hurt, I had chills, lower back pain, bloating. I was convinced I was pregnant. But I got my period today a day late. It’s heavier than usual and the cramps are unbearable, but now I can relax. So please for the girl reading this take a deep breath. This pill really works."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "“Effective” my ass. I literally took this within the hour of a condom malfunction and it DID NOT WORK. I was not ovulating or fertile, according to my period app. I waited almost 4 weeks after taking the pill to take a test, and sure enough it was positive. I read every review on here to try and ease my mind for such a late period, and I was one of the unlucky ones. If your period is more than 2 weeks late, please take a test. I’m writing this review to help others. I will forever be more careful."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I was not going to post a review but decided to after realizing there might be someone out there very nervous right now. I had sex a day after my period ended and while I probably didn't even need it, I was very scared, being a teenager, and decided to take Plan B. I took it five hours after the incident and I didn't have any side effects. I got my period 1 week 2 days after the pill, which is odd considering I just had it, but Plan B messes up your period. Now I'm not sure whether my next period will come when it was originally supposed to, or in a month, but since I got my period I know Plan B worked. I worried myself sick but reading all the positive reviews helped and I hope this one does too!"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "To whoever is reading this: You’re probably stressed, anxious, and worried. But trust the pill, you will be absolutely fine <3. I took plan b after the condom broke, which was close to my ovulation day. A week later I had brown spotting that lasted the entire month. But, at last I got my period!! It was 4 days late, and I was so worried the entire month. I had stopped living my life over this one thing. The pill works 95% of the time but I kept thinking about that slight chance when it doesn’t. Don’t think like that!! The odds are in your favour. Its can be really disheartening to read a bad review where the pill doesn’t work. However, don’t forget that for person who it didn’t work for, there are hundreds of thousands of people that it did work for!! You will be absolutely fine girl!! xxx"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "Long story short I had un protected sex TWICE in one month. Once on December 3 and the other on NYE Dec 31. I also took plan B each time. You can just imagine how messed up my cycle was and to make matters worse on Dec 31 I was OVULATING. Not just assumed ovulation because of an app, like I took an OPK and it said my LH levels were HIGH. I had almost every pregnancy symptom imaginable after taking my second plan B. However, I am proud to say that I got my period today on Jan 15. My last period started on Dec 4, so I was over a week late. I couldn’t help but read everywhere that Plan B does NOT work when you are ovulating. Please please do NOT freak out because it worked for me in the worst possible scenario. I also know for a FACT that I am VERY fertile because I have already had to terminate one pregnancy before. Despite me ovulating and being very fertile, it WORKED."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I had unprotected sex extremely close to my predicted ovulation. I took a plan B 4 hours later, only to learn that it is much less effective if ovulation has already occurred. Nothing to do but for my period. Exactly 14 days after I had some spotting, at first I was so elated because I thought it was my period. After the bleeding stopped I turned to Google (mistake). I convinced myself it was implantation bleeding, combined with the sore breasts I was experiencing I was sure I was pregnant. I took an early pregnancy test and it was negative. That same evening I got my period (:D). During my hours of stress, I read similar stories to mine to help calm me down. There is no need to be worried until you have actually missed your period, even then plan B can cause it to be delayed. Even if you are pregnant, you have options, you'll be okay. Don't worry until you are sure you need to."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I had unprotected sex on my ovulation day and I took the emergency pill the next day (less than 24 hours). After I week I got brown discharge and I assumed that it's my normal period but it stopped after 2 days. Now I'm currently waiting on my periods and hopefully I get them because I'm not ready to be a mom yet."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "Hello girls I want to share my experience with this drug. I had sex on ovulation day (day 13 of cycle) but the condom broke and he finished inside me. I panicked cause not using any regular contraceptive pill or IUD or anything and coming from a religious family meaning getting pregnant without marriage would be a disaster! So I had Plan B after 1 hour. I had mild cramps and headache only after few hours.. then I developed panic attacks but it could be from me being so anxious. Days after my breast were swollen and I was very moody. I had also mild headache. On day 18 I had major panic disorders and became very moody and had crying spells. My breasts became sensitive and hurt a little. Of course I went through depression thinking of what might happen if I got pregnant. However, I start having PMS like usual. On day 26 I had my period :)))))) Ladies.. believe in this pill. IT Works. I know it cause a lot of anxiety and this is normal its effective even after ovulation. Relax and let the pill does the job."

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "To the girl who is reading this, calm down and know that everything will be ok! I promised myself that if it worked for me, I would leave a review. I had unprotected sex on Dec 7 and bought the pill 30 mins later. My last period was Nov 7. Fast forward to the end of Dec., and my period was nowhere in sight. I ignored my stress until I got VERY worried when my period was almost 3 weeks late. My nipples were more sensitive, my boobs were sore, I was moody and I was bloated but still no period. I had been scrolling through pages and pages of reviews trying to bring myself comfort and I kept seeing women saying it didn’t work and they were pregnant. I was starting to panic I decided to take a pregnancy test. I took two tests and they were both negative. The day after I took the tests my period came! (20 days late) Remember that the pill can mimic pregnancy symptoms, and everyone’s body is different. Not everyone’s body will react the same. You will be ok!"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I want to share my experience taking plan b because I know some other ladies are just as scared as I was. I had sex with my boyfriend, but the condom had slid off without either of us knowing. He didn’t pull out either. I did not have time to stop at the store on my way home so I took plan b the next morning 16 hours after sex. You have to try not to throw up within the first two hours so I took a nap to prevent myself from doing so. I woke up light headed and feeling a little sick. After some time I felt completely fine. I noticed my emotions were really bad for the next few day maybe from the hormones in the pill. But I took a pregnancy test just to make sure and I am not pregnant! Even after 16 hours between sex and plan b! Please try your best not to google pregnancy symptoms because that will just scare you. Just stay strong and be patient! I’m sending prayers your way❤️"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "DO NOT STRESS!!!! So, I took plan b after the condom broke during sex, one day after my period (day 6 of my cycle). I took the pill about an hour after. Sometimes my period comes on day 21, so I wanted to be safe just in case I ovulated early. About 5 days after I took the pill, I started spotting (but kinda heavily) a DARK brown color. That progressed into a decent amount of blood, enough to warrant a tampon. The bleeding lasted for about 3 days, but wasn't super heavy. I also had cramps for about an hour but they were very light. I've taken plan b twice before, and only had light bleeding one of those times. Some time passes, to about a week and a half before my period is supposed to come. I start feeling pain in my lower back, very light. I'm getting bored of writing this tbh, but I just got my period on day 31 of my cycle. DON'T STRESS!!!"

Take Action (levonorgestrel) "Okay, I promised myself that I would do a review once I started my period to calm some of you ladies who are freaking right now. I took the pill probably about 45 minutes after unprotected sex. A week later I started spotting, so of course I was freaking out thinking it wasn’t my period. It was very light spotting, but my cramps were AWFUL! I was shaking they were so bad. The bleeding lasted 5 days, so I was hoping it was my period. A few days later I experienced every pregnancy symptom in the book.. headaches, nausea, exhaustion, sore boobs/nipples, weight gain, cravings. You name it! It felt like the most stressful few months of my life.. this month I was 6 days late on my period and FINALLY started! This pill does have side affects for some people! Not all.. but! If you take it before 72 hours I promise it works! You’ll be okay I promise.❤️"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "Honestly, reading these reviews really helped me get through it so I promised myself I would write one too. I am 19 and It was probably the day after my period ended about Nov 4th, my boyfriend and I were having unprotected sex and he came in me. I didn't take the pill until 2 days later. I had every symptom. DO NOT GOOGLE ANYTHING you will convince yourself you are pregnant like I did, just remember even though the symptoms are the same they wouldn't show up so early and its just side effect of the pill. I was nauseous, cramping, weird discharge and about 4 or 5 days I had light spotting I thought was implantation bleeding. My period was late and at the same timeI started throwing up, I thought it was morning sickness. 2 weeks after my missed period I took a pregnancy test because they are most accurate 7+ days after your normal period and it was negative I was SO RELIEVED. Just now almost 3 1/2 weeks later I got my period. Just relax and don't think about it the pill definitely works"

Take Action (levonorgestrel) "Hello, hopefully this helps some of you. I told myself I would write a review for this pill. Here we go! So, My boyfriend and I had sex on 2/6/20. We used a condom. He came and when he pulled out, we realized it had broken inside of me. He bought the "Take action" pill and I took it the next day 2/7/20 I have never taken this pill before. (I ate some food just in case because I didn't know if it was going to be hard on my body like plan b was.) I felt nauseous at first, but then it went away. I felt literally no nasty symptoms like plan b made me feel. (Then again it depends on the girls body so who knows). I started getting period symptoms on the 11th, 12th, and 13th of February. On Valentine's day I got my period! And I still have it right now. I really don't have any cramps just kinda a heavier flow. But the pill works!! Also I'm quite young so am not ready for a baby. Take care ladies ! Don't stress your period will show up."

Aftera (levonorgestrel) "I am a teen and if you are one too you might want to read this if your stressing and want to know how this works. I had sex with boyfriend he came in me with no condom. We bought aftera 1 hour or so later. My boobs were sore for about two weeks, it first started the day after I had taken the pill. The pain may get really bad but just breathe and relax, its a side affect. I got cramps here and there but it would feel like a little kick to my stomach. Then I had spotting for one day. I thought I was pregnant because of the dark color but that is also a side affect. Just breathe and let the pill do its work. Plan B and aftera are the same thing. Same ingredients. Don't dig through every website trying to see if your pregnant or not, its okay"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "I had unprotected sex and I took the pill 30 hours later. I felt a bit drowsy within the first few hours, however over the next two weeks I experienced cramping. The cramps were really bad.10 days after taking the pill my breasts completely swelled. My nipples were always hard and the pain was unbearable. I was convinced I was pregnant. The cramps continued and I was experiencing back pain. Then the pain in my breasts finally began to subside and I got my period the next day, exactly when I was supposed to. It was a little bit heavier than usual but I've never been happier to be on my period. The pill messes up your body due to increase of hormones. I've read it makes you feel exactly as pregnant women do so don't panic over the symptoms!"

Plan B One-Step (levonorgestrel) "If you're here reading these comments, that means you're a boy or girl in the same position I was: A mistake was made somewhere and you're concerned about pregnancy. The waiting is gruesome, but I'm here to assure you; this pill works. After ingesting the pill 16 hours after sex, a period of terrible waiting began. My girlfriend and I were both antsy and scared, and the time of her expected period came and went. She was 8 days late, but alas, she had it. This pill works in mysterious ways that can cause a later period, but I'm here to tell you there is nothing to worry about. It's scary, it's unsettling, but I'm here to tell you to calm down and relax because this pill will take care of everything."
