Check a test: A pregnancy test would answer your question. the irregular bleeding in July was likely due to the Plan B, but it should have corrected itself by now. if you are not wanting to be pregnant, you might want to consider birth control.

Neg test = not preg: Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infection, polyps, fibroids and hormonal changes can cause spotting. There are many options available to help regulate the menstrual cycle. If you think you might be pregnant check then check a home pregnancy test.
