A member asked:
I took ec pill on 29th feb got periods on 7th feb (expected date) . took ec pill again on 12th feb . had irregular bleeding on 16th. is it due to ec?

Probably the EC pill: Plan B or other EC pills can alter the menstrual bleeding for the cycle in which Plan B was taken, and sometimes the next cycle. One should be sure to check a home pregnancy test about 3 weeks after sex, because emergency contraception pills work most of the time, but not all the time. One should choose a Plan A (a reliable contraceptive method to use all the time), to avoid the need for EC pills.
