Pregnancy unlikely: Taking Plan B or other emergency contraceptive pills can alter the timing and quality of the current menstrual cycle bleeding and of the upcoming cycle. One should check a urine pregnancy 3 weeks after taking Plan B, to confirm nonpregnancy. Home urine pregnancy tests are very accurate, inexpensive to buy, and sold in stores everywhere.
