Right I'm going through the same thing. Took the plan b over a week ago and still no period and severe breast tenderness, I'm concerned that I may be pregnant and need some advice!!

Hi, I experienced very similar side effects and im posting to this to help everyone out. About 9 days after taking Plan b-- (I took it 70 hours after unprotected sex-just precum- i was 5 days into a new pack of BC when I had sex but have been on the pill for about 7 months) -- i experienced very tender breasts, back pain, cramping. At this point I was totally freaking out- picturing telling my mom and how disappointed she'd be and the whole 9 yards. 17 days after the act- 4 or 5 days before my next period, I took a HPT that was able to tell me "5 days before my missed period" ... It was negative. That was 3 days ago, im praying for my period to come tomorrow or the next day. However, I have read plan b can delay a cycle. If im late i plan to take another test FRIDAY (if no period comes) that is 4 days away. Will post back (hopefully saying I got my period on time) if not, will post results of HPT. Please guys lets all do our best to stay as calm as possible. This is clearly scary and we are all here to help. Praying for all of us tonight, self included. Talk to you all soon!

I took plan b 18 days ago. Five days after taking plan b I started spotting it lasted five days. After the second week here I am still tired all the time, nauseous, breasts are tender and bloated. I took an early pregnancy test three day's before my expected period and it is negative. My husband and I have three boy's and one is handicapped so we don't need anymore. I just want my energy back. It has been too long. So I wouldn't stress over this. You will be fine. The condom broke on us for the first time ever. Also I took the pill the following day.

I took plan b pill a little over a week ago-now my breasts are super tender, im bloated and feel like I'm PMSing (my PMS is starting a week earlier than normal) sounds like it's a common side effect of the pill, glad to hear I'm not crazy

So I took the pills and my breast hurt so bad. But I haven't got a light period afterwards. Should I be worried?

Omg that's happening to me!! It's like when you lay down, it's such a weird feeling but I didn't even think it was from taking plan b.. I'm glad someone else had this, so u are not alone lol reply back when it stops or if it has

I'm so glad this isn't just happening to me... So I had sex for the first time a couple weeks ago and we have done it maybe 4 or 5 times now and the last time we did it was unprotected so we got plan b as soon as we could about 8 hours after having sex. But my boobs have been hurting since I took it, I've been feeling nauseous all the time and cramping with back pain. I feel like I'm pmsing but I'm not suppose to start til the end of the month. So if I don't start my period by the end of the month I'm probably going to the doctor for a pregnancy test. So
Hopefully this is just side effects from plan b... But it's awful like I'm dizzy all the time and I have no energy for anything... Hope everything works out for you guys. I'll report back if my pregnancy test is negative and I'm still having symptoms. I'm so glad I came across this I really thought I was pregnant.

Hi so I'm 17 and I have a 24 day cycle. I had sex on the 6th day and took Plan b 2 days later. About a week later I had withdrawal bleeding and two weeks later when my old period came I had a little pink spotting and I took a pregnancy tests that day and it said negative. I am currently waiting to see if I get a period. My symptoms are all horrible, I am bloating one minute and losing weight the next, my gums are sore, I get full and hungry fast, and sometimes my abdomen hurts. My bf swears I am crazy and I'm not pregnant but I'm very scared because I know my mom will be so mad if I am. I am waiting to take another test in a week, any advice? Please it would be very helpful

Hi Ladies! Let me just say that i am glad i found this post! Ive read every single reply and it helps me feel a bit relieved. I do not think i am pregnant, but one can never be too sure in this case. Long story short, I took Plan B, had some serious mood swings the first few days, and some serious breast tenderness, nipple soreness for the past 5 days or so. I know not everyone gets the same symptoms but ive been reading alot that most of you have gotten spotty/light periods within the few days of taking it. I, however, have not had any indication of spotting or any light bleeding. Is this normal to not have this side effect? Also, i took Plan B the day after my period ended. This is the second time ive taken it and i didnt spot or have a light period before, but i dont remember having such painful breast tenderness. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I am not overly concerned if i am pregnant, im 28, almost married so its not that big of a deal to me. I am just wondering why i have never had any spotting or light bleeding with this when it seems like most of you have.
Sorry for the book!
Thanks, ladies!

I'm glad I found this post too. I took Next Choice on 7/5, but I had unprotected sex a few times the week before. My period was supposed to come by 7/1 if I were to be regular, but I have a very irregular menstrual cycle, about 60 days or more in each cycle. I started bleeding 6 days after taking the pill, which lasted for about 5 days. It wasn't heavy like my normal period and my cramps weren't that bad. When I get my period I bleed heavily and have very bad cramps. The only thing that made me worried was that I didn't have tender breasts which is my first symptom when getting my period. Then a few days into the bleeding I started getting a metallic taste in my mouth and that's what made me think I was pregnant. Did anyone else have this symptom?
Anyway, my breasts just started feeling fuller yesterday (which is exactly two weeks after taking the pill). That's really my only symptom besides that I don't have much of an appetite, but it's probably because I'm getting very paranoid and depressed in fear that I'm pregnant (again). I had the same symptoms when I was pregnant before (the light bleeding followed by tender breasts a few days after bleeding stopped). I have taken 4 HPT and so far negative. I am getting a blood test done tomorrow.

I was in the same situation as everyone else and read this whole thread in my sleepless nights hoping I will see a majority of these stories ending in non-pregnancies... and since a lot of people did not come back with the conclusion of their stories I thought I would share mine and ease some minds! Long story short I missed the pill at the worst moment, forgot to take it for several days and then had sex (don't ask me why I did that!). Took Plan B 16h later. The first few days I got normal symptoms like mood swings, fatigue and nausea. I didn't think of it too much because I knew that my chances of being pregnant while on the pill AND taken Plan B right away were small. But about 10 days later I went for a run and just couldn't breathe through me sports bra and my breasts were terribly sore! For the next few days I had sore and fuller breasts. I was joking around saying I finally got my grown woman's boobs (I am 24 and bras are really just an option for me). It was all laughs until my BF suggested I might be pregnant. Then comes the anxiety. I knew breasts soreness was a side effect of Plan B, but 2 weeks later? I started having anxiety attacks and taking every single twitch in my body as a symptom of pregnancy. I was nauseous just from the anxiety itself. Well, 3 weeks after taking Plan B I got my period, right on time, even a little early. And my breasts are back to normal. To everyone with these side effects (tiredness, mood swings, breasts soreness (and fullness), nausea) please know that they are ALL side effects of Plan B even weeks after you took it. A dose of hormones this large is bound to mess up your ENTIRE cycle with weird symptoms. So stop worrying and don't spend all your money on pregnancy tests until you actually missed your period.
