Could plan b cause spotting and false positive pregnancy tests?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Plan B: No. Plan b will not cause a postive pregnancy test. If positive its because most likely you are pregnant and the Plan B did not work or you took it more than the recommended 3-5 days after an unprotected sexual encounter. See your obgyn for more testing and ultrasound.
