Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Can plan b cause an itchy vagina? Had protected sex two days ago but the condom broke so yesterday I took plan b and now today I m itchy. I am also on normal birth control but took the plan b because we had intercourse on the day I started my active pills back up and I didn t know if I was covered or not.
The most common side of Plan-B (emergency contraceptive pill containing Levonorgestrel) include:Nausea & vomiting, abdominal pain, tiredness, dizziness, changes in vaginal bleeding, breast tenderness, diarrhea, or headache.
Itching could have been caused by other reasons like dry skin, fungal infection or allergic reaction. A gynecological examination is recommended to exclude the above causes and proper treatment.
Hope to have answered.
