What Causes Lower Abdominal Pain And Swollen Breasts?
So on july 13 was the start of my last period. On july 18 me and my partner had protected sex but when he pulled out, he took the condom off and he finished like on my vagina... so i took Plan b 2-3 days after. A week after i took Plan b, i got a period just like my normal periods. And a week after it ended (today) ive had cramping in my lower stomach and my breast have been more swollen? i just really want to know if i could be pregnant. im really scared
Hi Thanks for posting on HCM Pregnancy is possible.The 18th coincided to day 6 of your cycle and may be unsafe if you got a short cycle.Plan B however is an emergency contraceptive, very effective within 72 hours of sex and efficiency reduces with time and most effective within 24 hours.Taking plan B 2-3 days after may help prevent pregnancy but failure in this case is possible.Plan B also is very effective but not at 100%.The symptoms you present could be symptoms of pregnancy or side effects of plan B.I will suggest you take a pregnancy test.If negative, you just stay calm and observe.If symptoms persist, you see the Doctor for evaluation. Hope my answer will help you Best regards
