Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your symptoms could be due to
1. Side effect of the plan B pill: high progesterone cause sore and sensitive nipples.
2. Pregnancy: As plan B has some failure rate (5-15%)- as your bleeding could be a implantation bleeding.
Plan B also cause delayed period by 8-10 days.
If period will delay by more than 12 days then go for urine pregnancy test and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, gentle massage to breast with evening prime rose oil, drink plenty of water
Best regards
