Hi everyone! I have kind of the same problem. Well, on January 29th, I had unprotected sex with my fiancé and he did indeed ejeculate inside of me so we got the morning after one step (plan b) less than 12 hours late. I took it with a slice of pizza and on Feburary 5th I got what seemed to be a period but it was heavy/spotting I couldn't tell. When I wiped bright red but nothing on the pad. That lasted for several days. It's now March 14th my breast are swollen nipples hard, and I'm bloating! Could it be that I'm PMS? Or preggers? I mean it would be lovely if I were pregnant but I'm young and not ready for this. Someone let me know please!
Before I forget, mid-last week I was having abdominal pains on my side and back aches but Im not sure if the back aches are from me standing up so much because I work in retail or If it's something else. I'm not sure. If I can get an answer it be awesome
I found this forum because I have been extremely bloated and crampy since taking Plan B a few weeks ago and I wanted to make sure that was normal. I just realized that my breasts have been tender too! I didn't even think about it being related to the Plan B but it makes sense. My gums are also painful to the touch. I don't know if that is related but I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one. I'm going to the Dr soon anyways so I will just ask her then.
I had to take a test to put myself at ease since I didn't want to delay my period anymore and it is positive. I took the plan b the very next morning to be on the safe side but it didn't work. I'm in shock.
This was a complete accident and I tried to be responsible by taking the extra precaution as well. This has to be a fluke but wow.. .
Were you having the same symptoms as everyone else?
So like many of you, I'm going through a lot of the same symptoms as one would experience in the first month or two of pregnancy. I had unprotected sex March 22rd, two days after my period had ended took the Plan B pill 38 hours afterwards (March 23rd/24th). The first day or two after taking it I felt nauseous and tired and that was it it ended by March 25th. now April 2nd I'm having issues with dizziness, bloating, nausea/throwing up, extreme breast pain, major mood swings, and some abdominal pain similar to cramping/pressure. I spotted a brownish discharge for one day (March 31st) and it stopped the same day. I'm trying not to freak out and am taking it day by day, being that when I normally have a period I never have any of these symptoms it is causing a level of concern or worry. I've read many postings and have done a lot of research as to what can happen to the body after taking the Plan B. So its the waiting game until I know one way or the other, thought I would put this out there and see what or if anyone else has some input.
Please help!!
I have never had sex before but I had romance with my boyfriend and it was likely that his sperms could have gotten into me. I was so nervous of getting pregnant so I took plan B less than 24 hours after the incidence. I had a very light spotting(just for a day)about 5 days of taking it. I did not have any side effects until now. I was supposed to have my period between 20th to 23rd of last month but it didn't come, which means I did NOT have any menses last month. Today is the 2nd and my breast are very full(increase in size) and very tender. I had home prego test on the 27th and it was neg. I do not know what to do. Is it just a side effect or what? I am really nervous. Any experiences with this? Please Help...
I had sex unprotected but no ejaculation and he pulled out when he felt like he was going to precum. I told plan b the next day and its been a week. Ive taken it before and had bleeding a week after but this time there was no bleeding... I have had cramps all week and my boob are very tender. Im just looking for answers..
The last few sentences of this makes me think you're either really young or, you think you're talking to a bunch of really young girls.
Just wanted to give back to this forum as the info was helpful for us. My girlfriend and I had an 'accident' and so she took Plan B, the next morning. We had sex a couple times after that, pulling out both times. We became very concerned as she suddenly started to have sensitive nipples, a strange sensation in her stomach - all the time, very sore lower back, acne...etc until within 2 weeks she had 9/10 pregnancy indicators. She has two kids, (both of whom were conceived I find out after her ex pulled out!) and both pregnancy's felt very similar to this. By this point I was convinced she was pregnant. I searched the internet quite a bit and it said nothing about side effects like these UNTIL I found this discussion. I still thought she was most likely pregnant. Anyways a week back now she started her period (late by a week)!! So basically, in certain situations Plan B can obviously mimic a pregnancy. Thanks for all the posts, hope this helps.
As many people have stated, I am very happy that we are sharing the same symptoms. While having sex with my long term boyfriend, the condom broke. I am not on regular birth control due to migraine headaches and have been waiting for my insurance to approve an IUD. So, out of complete paranoia I went to the pharmacy about 30 minutes after the condom broke! Many people would laugh, but that is how much I do not want a child right now. Anyways, that was about 4 days ago and I am having a ton of breast pain. Also, my nipples have been really hard and my lower back hurts. But after reading this forum, I feel better knowing that this is a normal side effect. In fact, it is documented as a common side effect in the booklet that comes with the pill. Sorry, to drone on like this.
Hey Ladies,
Just thought I'd describe my experience. So I took Plan B April 1st, 2012 (I was also on my period, two days before it ending) within an hour of having unprotected sex (my partner did ejaculate inside of me). I experienced some nausea and cramping after. Exactly a week later, I ended up messing around with the same guy but did not have intercourse. Just foreplay. I took the Next Choice Pill 2 days later because I was extremely paranoid about getting pregnant. I spotted for a few days a week and a day later after taking Next Choice *(spotted for 3 days--very red light blood). After those incidents I knew I had to get on birth control. I was due for my period April 25th and it is now 9 days late. I went to my University Health Clinic and took a pregnancy urine test after being 6 days late and came out negative. The Dr. reassured me that I am NOT pregnant (because their exams are very accurate), and prescribed me birth control (yay). So now the hell begins. It's been only two days since taking the birth control and even a few weeks before my missed period I felt a ton of side effects including: bloating, nausea, burping, gas, dizziness, white thick discharge (for a week now), and I feel very full after just eating one meal. I'm worried I could still be pregnant (due to all the symptoms I'm experiencing) and that the Urine Test did not detect my pregnancy at the time. I'm still playing the waiting game as far as my period is concerned. Just want to let you know that I have been in STRESS Mode for A Month Now, and I know that can be a big indication as to why my period is late (coupled with the fact that I took EC twice within two weeks). I try to calm myself down but can't help but get worried over this. Especially with all the symptoms I'm feeling. Just to let you know I did get screened for STD's 2 weeks after unprotected sex and came back negative. Having sex is a huge responsibility and going through this turmoil is hell. I understand how many of you are feeling. I'm also experiencing a very high sex drive, but I think that's because of all the stress I'm feeling. No breast soreness or tenderness what so ever though.
Good luck ladies. I will keep you posted on when I get my period. I believe I'm ovulating now and I'm trying to calm myself down and I'm now expecting my period to come in two weeks (judging on the fact that I may be ovulating now). Most of the time I don't believe I'm pregnant but I have my hours of worry from day to day...the waiting game is so hard.

Hello ladies, glad to know I'm not alone!!....ok so here my experience
I had sex on April 14, and he only inserted for like 5 sec and took it out because I forced me to, so no ejaculation or anything, but I still went and took plan b the next day, so that night we had sex and the condom slipped out but he hadn't ejaculated, so anywho, I went and bought another plan b (yes that's 2 in 3/4 days, NOT RECOMMEMDED) and 4-5 days later I had a little spotting/bleeding along with diarrhea, and that was it that week, but the next weekend (which was my actual period time) I got a small period but before the weekend I felt bloated and just plain pregnant, yet I took a preg test (early but still) and it was negative so cool, so then I got my period I was relieved.... Ok so today 3 weeks from taking plan b, I am bloated again and just feel pregnant and yes it's scary, so anyone please help, other than that I will keep posting, Im probably gonna take another test just to make sure because my head hurts from all this stress!!!!
I am also experiencing the same thing. I had unprotected sex and then took contraceptive pill within 72 hours. My period cycle is 6 days late and my one breast is paining very badly, i can't even touch it. My period flow is very less. I took prega test on first day of my period. but still i am really worried whether i am pregnant or not? can anyone help me in this. i don't want to be pregnant
The same thing is happening to ne right now... Had period for two days now my one boon is super soar. Did everything with u turn out okay?
I had unprotected sex on 27th and has taken plan b the next following day. After an hour my partner and I had unprotected sex again. Exactly 5 days after, which was the 4th, i had my period. It came a week earlier. After that my abdominal hurt and now my breast are swollen and tender. And I just took the test, it came out negative. Luckily I found this website, I'm not worried of being pregnant anymore
