Thank you for visiting the EmpowHER community and sharing your question about Plan B and birth control. Even though you haven't had your period yet, still start your pack as usual.
PlanB is notorious for delaying the menstrual cycle because it has so many hormones and unpleasant side effects.
I can't tell you when it will come, but try to be patient-it will come...PlanB is very effective at preventing pregnancy.
It could take 2-3 menstrual cycles to get your period regular again after taking PlanB. Just the downside to taking ECP.
If your period doesn't come in a week or so, you can take a home pregnancy test-but for now I am sure you are fine. You just have to wait for the hormones to run their course.
