Hi Anonymous

We get this question a lot. Here is what the Plan B website's FAQ says:

"When used as directed, Plan B One-Step™ is safe and effective. Side effects may include changes in your period, nausea, lower abdominal pain, fatigue, headache, dizziness, and breast tenderness. Some women may have changes in their period, a heavier or lighter next period, or a period that is early or late. If your period is more than a week late, you may be pregnant. If you have severe abdominal pain, you may have an ectopic pregnancy, and should get immediate medical attention."

I suggest you wait a little longer, and read the Plan B website: http://planbonestep.com/plan-b-faq.aspx. If you don't get your period, take a home pregnancy test in 2 weeks.

Now is the time to make a plan for birth control so you don't have to go through this again. Visit your health care provider or a Planned Parenthood for education on options and discussion of what is best for you.

Good luck to you.

I had unprotected sex a couple days after my period and then went home and took three of my roommates BC pills (stupid, I know); the next day I felt nauseous. He pulled out, but I was worried about pre-cum so I also decided to take Plan B two days later. About a week or so after that, I had bleeding that was dark brown and reddish for four or five days ( started Sept. 13 ish). That was just about a month ago and I still have not gotten my period. I'm pretty much freaking out and worried I'm pregnant. Any advice will help! Thank you!

I start my period around the 6-8 I had Unprtected sex Sat, September 25 and took the Plan b One step Sep.27. i Have not Gotten my period at all and its already Oct.15 I am very concern i have been getting frequent cramping and soar Breast, i took 3 pregnacy test a week after my missed period and 2 of them came out positive and one negative. Am i pregnant or just late on period!? please someone answer ASAP im very WORRIED!
