So i had sex with my boyfriend after we had a dinner date and forgot to mention a condom. the act itself didnt last long when we remembered that we weren't using one and he pulled out. shortly after he came. i do know that there is still a small risk with pre cum so having sex on that saturday i was able to take the plan b pill on monday just to be safe. i should be starting my period soon but i wanted to know how i could tell if the pill was working? i was reassured at first but for some reason now that 2 weeks have passed ive started to worry. i just need to hear from someone else if i should be ok or not because in all honesty im not ready for a baby yet...

Hi Laini,

Often, there are no signs that the pill has done anything.

Depending upon where you were in your cycle you can have an early period, or have spotting or cramping.  Not all women get these, or have them every time.

Remember too, your next FEW periods may be early or late AND heavier or lighter than normal.  All of these are common side effects.

Hope it helps.

It starting on time is a very good sign.

If it appears "normal" as in like your other periods, it is very unlikely that you would be pregnant. You can always take a home test. It's been more than 2 weeks so it should be accurate. Just be sure to use your first morning urine for best accuracy.

I don't think you are pregnant.
