Hey guys, I just wanted to ask if anyone could reply to me? I'm in abit of a mess - well, I'm a natual panicer, so that's probably why too.
I took the pill about a week and abit ago, and then about five days later I had sex again, but two days after I had sex, I began to have a VERY VERY light period, normally when I start periods they are heavy and it was 15 days early. I went to a doctor to talk to them about it, they said to take the pill again, as I had sex again, but because it was too early to define if I was pregnant, I am still panicing about it? Because I have had some light blood flow am I definately not pregnant?

K - my story...

I had my period between the first and second week of august (liek the 1st - 7th). I had really light pink spotting on the 20th which i accounted to ovulation bleeding. I had sex later that evening and my boyfriend - seeing blood and thinking i was on my period - came inside of me. I took a morning after pill roughly 20 hours later. The pink spotting was realllllllly light. Stopped after the third day (like ovulation bleeding should). Then i started noticing blood on the 23rd. Heavier than the spotting but not like a period. The next day i got a full blow period. This is two weeks early. I'm especially freaked out because i had the spotting before anything. Everything i've been reading makes what i'm going through sound normal, but there is also the little possibility something is wrong with me... My question is, did anyone get their period like two days after taking the plan b pill? is that normal?

You are most likely not pregnant. I was searching for the same question and came to this forum.

So for the benefit of future visitors I am posting below what I found:"If the pill is taken before ovulation (means right after your period), the high doses of progestogen in levonorgestrel treatments may induce progestogen withdrawal bleeding a few days after the pills are taken. One study found that about half of women who used levonorgestrel ECPs experienced bleeding within 7 days of taking the pills."

Complete article is right there in wikipedia (emergency contraception or ECP).Also, after reading from this thread, it would be right to assume that the bleeding may continue for next 5-7 days.

Hope this was of some help.

They won't do a pap smear if u are on your period u have to wait until it finishes before they can do one.

I took plan B after I had a mishap that occured on my first day of ovulation. I had no side effects after taking plan B but now it is exactly a week later after having taken plan B and I started having some bleeding that is dark brownish-red with a little cramping. Is this my period or implantation bleeding? Any advice or thoughts? I don't feel nauseated but I do feel heartburn lately but that could be from the food I eat. I also feel fatigued but thats because I'm in full time grad school and on call in the hospital all the time. Any thoughts would help because my head is spinning right about now...

I took the morning after pull after I lost my virginity, I spotted for about four days then it went away. About two weeks later I got my period but I haven't had t since and it was due two and a half weeks ago. I took a pregnancy test and it said negative, so I'm assuming it does.

I took the morning after pill three days after my period, two days later it came again. This didn't surprise me because I had taken it before and it came early however I have had my period for two weeks solid now, it wasn't so heavy to begin with but now it's crazy heavy, I don't know what's wrong with me. If its me or the pill. I already have an extremely low iron so I'm scared of losing anymore blood.

hey,

I took the morning after pill two weeks ago and only just got my period on sat(a week late!) The dctr said it does mess up your monthly cycle for a little while but usually you go back to normal after a few months :)

As for the breakouts soz, I only got really bad cramps/nautious from it, hopefully they clear up soon!
