I took plan b 2 weeks ago and i'm spotting a couple days before my cycle is due?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common: plan B use typically causes bleeding. However, since it isn't 100% effective, check a pregnancy test if its been about 2 weeks since using it. Also likely a good time to schedule an appointment for birth control
