A member asked:
Took plan b on day 2 of my period. usually it was lighter on day three like normal, but on day four it got heavier. is this because of the medication?

"Plan B": "Plan B" types of "emergency contraception" is really the same as a birth control pill, and taking it will produce bleeding a couple days later if not continued. This is the same as the "period" which occurs after the active pills of a birth control pill cycle ends, and the placebo pills begin.
