Hello
Chances of pregnancy are almost nil.You need not have taken plan b just after your period stopped.You were not ovulating at that time.The period you had after that is due to withdrawal bleeding from the plan b.If you started you oc pill on 13th may then you have to continue the packet till your pill free days when you will bleed.
