A member asked:
Will a nursing mother get her period if she takes a plan b?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe maybe not : Plan b will change up the menstrual cycle since it works by preventing ovulation. Bleeding is common but not manditory. You should always take a pregnancy test after using Plan B to make sure that it worked. Please see your doctor to start a more reliable birth control method too.
