A member asked:
I took plan b. how can i tell the difference between withdrawal bleeding and period bleeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It often isn't: readily apparent if it is your period or breakthrough bleeding. Sometimes a HPT is the best way to figure out if you can't tell if it is your period to breakthrough bleeding. Take care.
