What Are The Chances Of Pregnancy If Taken Plan B Within 24 Hours Of Unprotected Sex?

default
Posted on Thu, 16 Apr 2015
Question: I have always used a condom with my girlfriend except for once. She got her period February 14 and then we had sex a week later and it was unprotected so we got Plan B. She took it and had her period again later that week. We've been having sex but always with protection. It's now March 26 and she hasn't had her period and she's been having stomach cramps. We had sex on March 24 and I had ejaculated inside three condoms and then we had unprotected sex and I did not ejaculate inside of her but we got Plan B just to be safe. She now has her veins extremely blue and popping from her skin. Is she pregnant or has the Plan B just messed with her cycle?

Brief Answer:
Not likely to be pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
If she took the plan B within 24 hours of unprotected sex then the chances of pregnancy are minimal. It is normal to have a delay in the periods by a week or 10 days after taking plan B. The bleeding that she had after taking plan B was a withdrawal bleeding.
Just to double check this you can do a pregnancy test and if it is negative then there is no need to worry. Her periods will start on their own in next 7-10 days.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
