A member asked:
What causes the periods to delay if one has taken the plan b pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: The delayed period may be due hormonal imbalance caused by plant B. Or you may be pregnant. If you miss your period by 4-5 days, do a home pregnancy test. If the result is negative repeat the test 4-5 days later unless you get a period by then. Use first morning urine and follow the instructions for the test carefully. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex if you have sex. Get HPV vaccine, if you are younger than 27 years.
