Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Plan-B?
Ok my boyfriend and I are sexually active. July 2nd we had intercourse but the condom fell off and we didn t realize till the end. Immediately after we ran and got Plan B one step , Not even an hour after I took it. My period was due July 4th now fast forward to July 8th I m spotting very little blood but is this my period I have cramps and my usual period symptoms. I don t think I m pregnant but I m scared I m only 19 and I ve used protection every single time we ve had intercourse. Is this my period? Should I be concerned? Is my period delayed due to the Plan B? What should I do?

Hello,
You were using plan B pills correctly immediately after intercourse and they are highly effective when taken within 72 hours.
So you don't have to worry about pregnancy. The spotting or delay are normal side effects of emergency pills.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
