Let me share my story, some time ago I had unprotected sex a day later I took the Plan and four days later I had my period. A day after it was finished, I had unprotected sex again and the day after I took Plan B. My period was late and I took 5 Pregnancy Tests that all read negative. I was losing my mind! Then, on the 16th day, my period came!!!! Whew! But after two more periods, my cycle is still off track because it's no longer 28 days, it's now 35!
But just have faith. It will come!
Hi
Here's my story.
I had unprotected sex on 16 sep. My period had ended on 11 sep so 16th was my last day, just spotting. I popped the ec on 17th- around 13 hrs later. On 21 sep i got the withdrawal bleed- a lighter version of a normal period, but i had to wear pads. I bled for about 3-4 days. I have a 28-31 day cycle so ideally my Oct period if all had been fine would be 11 oct. I researched so much and was confused whether my new cycle date would be 11th or 21st(first day of withdrawal bleed). Every site and many ladies out there had conflicting experiences.
Anyway, from the 25th sep to around 8th oct i felt fine except for my nipples being really sore. But from 8th oct to 14th oct i had weird cramping, felt like my uterus was hanging, harder boobs, bad gas almost as if a baby was kicking inside my tummy.
Today is Oct 15 and my period is here full blown.
Ec causes havoc in your system. My period is pretty regular. I know exactly when I'm ovulating and though i knew i wasn't ovulating on 16 sep when i had sex, i still took the pill cuz i have a six year old already and don't want anymore kids. I'm 37 years old and very fertile so i wanted to be safe than sorry when i popped the ec.
I've popped the ec twice before and both times i did not experience the withdrawal bleed. My theory is if you're ovulating and u take the ec u don't usually get withdrawal bleeding. I could be wrong. If u take it soon after your period, u may bleed.
Ec does work and if you get a negative preg test after about 4 weeks of taking it, most likely you're not preggo unless in between you've had more accidents. Hope this helps someone
i'm 19 and this is the second time i've taken ec within the last 6 or so months, i had unprotected sex on the last day of my period (3rd of september), short after taking it i got another small period, which i expected to happen, but it is now nearly the start or november and i am moody, have tender breasts, weird cramps and a sharp pain on my left side. I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow but i would like to know if anyone here has experienced sharp pains or if thats just me? i'm a very anxious person so anything to put my mind at ease would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
I'm also in same boat but no spotting at all and I'm 12 days late and still negative tests on pregnancy
