A member asked:
Do i still take birth control if i haven't received my period and took plan b on the thursday i was supposed to receive my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Keep taking your pills on schedule. Plan B does interfere with your regular menstrual cycle but is only short term contraception, i.e., "morning after" or 0-72 hrs after and not reliable for future unprotected sex and not as effective as consistent daily birth control pill.
