A member asked:

Question about plan b. i took it july 16 and got my period august 18. then september 4th im experiencing stomach cramps, gas (& diarrhea just one time) .could it be because of junk food for something else expect pregnancy right? since i got my period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to guess: Plan B can alter the menstrual bleeding and symptoms for the cycle in which Plan B was taken, and sometimes the next cycle too. One should be sure to check a home pregnancy test about 3 weeks after sex, because Plan B works most of the time, but not all the time.
