[@AbigailRoseify]

The irregularity and heaviness of the bleeding and the cramps that my sister experienced after taking plan b, makes me think that this medication is marketed as "oh it's just some spotting" but really it's actually very hard to tolerate and very very unpleasant and my sister said she would never take it again, so out of respect for her experience, I don't recommend it to anyone

I personally do appreciate hearing her experience because I personally am going through much heavier and longer bleeding then most people experience.

[@donnatiedman9714]

Okay just to help other people out- It was probably my fertile window but I don't keep track of my period so I'm not sure. I took the unwanted 72 pill within 24 hours on 13th June. I didn't have any side effects until about a week later (20th June) I had some bleeding. It wasn't exactly spotting but it wasn't a normal period either. I was worried that it could be implantation bleeding but I read that implantation bleeding is usually lighter and not as common as people would think. I guess it was withdrawal bleeding from the pill. It lasted for about 4 days. My period was supposed to start on 28th June but it didn't come. In fact, I completely missed it. I took 3 tests. One on the fourth day of missing period and one a week after missing it. And another one a few days after that. All negative. I didn't have my period the whole month and I was worried sick. But today, on 28th July, I got my period. So basically I missed my period for a whole month and got it right on time the next month. Hope this helps

This is so helpful. Thank you for sharing. I freaked out and I took 2 plan b pills.i got my period a week after. I had a heavy one for 7 days. After few days of finishing my period, I started spotting and feeling nauseous. Now I am terrified. I started researching and I learnt about implant bleeding. But according to the docs, implant bleeding should be light and shouldn't last more than 2 days so I am so confused. I know what I had was full period. I am feeling feverish and nauseous all the time. I have taken plan b few times before but this is the first time I am experiencing the hormonal changes and side effects. It might be due to taking 2 bill. When I tool pregancy test, it said positive so how can you get your period and be pregant at the same time. I think I will wait for the next month to see if I get my period. The test might be false since my hormones are all over the place now . The wait begins . I hope someone will find this helpful.

It was very uncomfortable, because i felt anxious the whole time, I didn’t understand what was happening to me. I spotted again after a week which gave me anxiety thinking it was a symptom of pregnancy, but then my period came 4 days earlier, which is normal because i have irregular periods.

Period went off on a Thursday.

(Day 4) I’ll try to remember to come back and update. *update my period went off on Sunday Based off my personal experience I’ve taken the pill twice first time I don’t remember so it must have not affected me much but this second time I was very nauseated, stomach pain , not really cramps but like a dull constant ache, and extremely MOODY I was snapping on my boo and he just took it lol I had to apologize once I realized what was going on 😂 but in conclusion I won’t be taking the pill again, I don’t like how it made me feel.

Hi there, I’m sorry to hear you are experiencing this. Since it’s been 2 months since the pill I don’t think this is a side effect. I think it’s best you are seen in person by your provider. Many other hormonal factors or dietary factors can cause your symptoms that need to be evaluated.

Hi! Thank you for this very informative video. It’s helped ease my mind but I still have a question. So I took a plan b on the 10th of may which was last Monday. My period was scheduled to come next week around the 28th but instead it came this Monday the 17th. It started off as brown spotting and then went onto the brighter red I usually see for my period. However for the first 2 days it was a good amount of blood I’d say and filled a panty liner but it never got heavy enough for a pad. Mostly just there when I wipe. My period has always been 3 days but right now it’s lighter and I notice it seems to be mixed with cervical fluid as well. Is this okay? And do you think it is most likely my period and is just lighter because of the plan b or could it be a rare case of implantation bleeding?

[@TheLadysGuide]

Hi Shiann, your welcome! As discussed in the video irregular bleeding is super common with Plan B. This could look like spotting, an early period, late period, lighter than usual or a bit heavier. All of this is very typical after taking Plan B. Because it alters the menstrual cycle there is no way to know for sure if the bleeding you experienced is your period. It's best to take a test 2-3 weeks later to be sure the pill worked.

Hi there, the more often Plan B is used the more irregular bleeding can become. It is best not to use the pill multiple times but rather use an effective form of birth control (whether that's a medication or condoms). If you are experience heavy bleeding please check in with your provider for evaluation.

[@muvaog8232]

Literally dealing with this now. I just had my period from the 2nd to the 9th… took a plan b on the 11/12 and 2 days later HEAVY HEAVY FLOW AND pain.. not only that it’s been 4 days.

So I wanted to know was that normal. Then second week I’ve notice after taking it some of my period signs was showing such as mood swings, feeling bloated and very gassy plus acne was coming up. Now this is the third week and I know my period should’ve of started this Sunday, but I still haven’t seen it yet so is it best that I should take a test to be on the safe side?

Hi Sav, as discussed in my video irregular bleeding is common with Plan B. The bleeding you experienced 3-4 days later was not your period but just a side effect of the pill. It's common to have a delayed or missed period. Your period should regulate within 1-2 months back to normal. Taking a test two weeks later from when you took Plan B is the only way to rule out pregnancy.

Hi Brittany, as discussed in the video it’s best to take a test two weeks after taking Plan B. Since Plan B can also cause a delayed period it’s best to take a test to confirm the pill worked. Plan B may be less effective in women over 198 lbs but it can still work.

Bloating, mood swings. It was crazy. Fast forward to December 23rd still hadn’t gotten a regular period. Just lots of fluid. So I took a pregnancy test that day. It was negative. I still havent gotten my period, but am experiencing veryyy light spotting. Breasts are sore, and I’m cramping. Thought I started my period last night, I could feel the rush of fluid in my underwear, put a tampon in and was relieved. I woke this morning to find a tiny little spot of blood on my tampon. I’m so freaked out. I’m 36, this is the 4th time if taken plan b in my adult life and have never experienced any of these symptoms before. Could I still be pregnant? I just want my period to come.

Hi Mali, if ovulation already occurred and it has been beyond 24 hours since ovulation occurred then pregnancy is not possible since an egg can only survive for 24 hours. However it can be challenging to know exactly when ovulation occurred so it's still best for Plan B to be taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse if pregnancy is not in the plan right now.

Hi there, you did the right thing by taking it!
