Had Unprotected Sex, Took Pill, Experiencing Constant Bloating Constant Urination, Fatigue, Discharge. Reason?

Hi, I had unprotected sex a week ago and took plan B the next day (the next morning). The second dose dropped down the sink so I was instructed to retake it all over again, but wasn't able to get until 2 days later (3 days after unprotected sex). I took it the 3rd morning, and took it again 12 hours later. I've been pregnant before, therefore I've felt the symptoms of pregancy before. It's now been 5 days since I've tooken Plan B and I am experiencing constant bloating (especially after I eat, constant urination, fatigue, a little dizziness, and a little discharge. I'm really confused as to if these are symptoms of pregnany (although it's very soon) or if it's the extreme dose of hormones I've taken.

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
As you do not took the pills according to the recommended schedule complete protection is somewhat doubtful.
Symptoms could be due to side effect of the high dose pills also.
So you wait till your expected date of periods and if you miss the periods, go for pregnancy test once.
Meanwhile you can take symptomatic treatment.
Try to use some regular contraceptive method in future.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
