A member asked:
If i took plan b a few days after my period and then had continual bleeding for approximately 3 days, is that my period ?

Not exactly: 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. Pregnancy tests are inexpensive, sold in stores everywhere, and are very accurate.

Withdrawal bleeding: Bleeding that occurs after taking Plan B is called "withdrawal bleeding" and usually subsides within a few days.
