A member asked:
Can plan b be used to stop your period temporarily?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not recommended: Plan b's side effect is delayed period; however, you should not be using it to stop having periods, as that is not its indication for use. Talk to your doctor about using standard birth control pills in a manner that would stop periods.
