Period isn't normal after plan b, it keeps stopping and starting ?

It can happen: Irregular bleeding after taking a morning-after pill like Plan B, or Ella (ulipristal) is somewhat common. Some women get spotting or bleeding before the next period. Women may also have a heavier or lighter next period, or a period that is early or late (hard to predict) . A urine pregnancy test should be done 3 weeks after taking a morning-after pill, to be sure there is no pregnancy.
