A member asked:

What happens if you take plan b while on your period? will it stop my period? is there any chance i could still get pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It works/Maybe/Maybe: Plan B can alter the menstrual bleeding for the cycle in which Plan B was taken, and sometimes the next cycle too. One should be sure to check a home pregnancy test about 3 weeks after sex, because Plan B works most of the time, but not all the time.
