Are Symptoms Of Sore Breasts And Stomach Getting Bigger Is Pregnancy Or Are These The Side Effects Of Plan B?

Hi, I had unprotected sex with my boyfriend then the next day I had my period. Just to make sure I wasn't going to get pregnant I also took plan b even though I was in my period, but my period are very irregular. We kept on having sex but this time it was protected and the condom never broke.Two weeks after I'm feeling like my stomach is getting bigger and my breast are sore and very heavy, can I still be pregnant or are this just side effects of plan B?

Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms. Two weeks is too short a time period for you to notice any significant change in the size of your stomach to say it is as a result of pregnancy. As a matter of fact, the fetus is not even up to 1cm big by now and there is no way that can cause an increase in the size of your stomach.

The information you have provided makes the chances of pregnancy very slim. However, a rapid home pregnancy test would clear any doubt about this. You may do one. Your symptoms are more related to side effects of plan B that a possible pregnancy at this time.

If clearly you do not wish to get pregnant now, please adopt and use a ore reliable method of contraception. If it is something you would want to try, talk to your treating doctor about this. Also, remember that condoms in addition to preventing against pregnancy also protect against STDs, I strongly recommend them.

I hope this addresses your query fully. Thank you so much for using our services and please feel free to ask for clarifications if need be. I wish you the best of health.
