I am experiencing prolonged bleeding after taking a plan b and its been longer than a week?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Plan b will change up the menstrual cycle since it works by preventing ovulation. Bleeding is expected. You should always take a pregnancy test after using Plan B to make sure that it worked. Please see your doctor to start a more reliable birth control method too.
