Hi there! In February I took Plan B because I had unprotected sex (even though there was no ejaculation, I was just being really safe as I don't use the pill, only condoms/ovulation cycle). I got my period on schedule about 2.5 weeks later (didn't have any 'symptoms' or side affects from the Plan B) at the beginning of March and had a somewhat normal period - the bleeding was a bit heavier and choppy - I didn't bleed for a day and then did again for 3 or 4. So that all seemed normal. Not its the beginning of April and and I should have started my next period a few days ago but don't have any PMS symptoms, and I'm on day 34 of my cycle. Haven't taken a pregnancy test yet as I think I'm over worrying and its just a side effect of the Plan B? I did have sex once between March and April but it was within a few days of my period ending so in an "okay" time in my cycle and there was only a minute or so without a condom!
So my question is, is it a normal side effect of the Plan B to be affecting my NEXT period like this? Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated - also at what point should I take a pregnancy test?
