How can i tell if bleeding after plan b is period or withdrawal bleeding? (took it 3 days b4 period was due & got it 4 days later; like normal period)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either way: Defining the actual cause of menstrual bleeding is not important. The important thing is for me is confirming you're not pregnant. You could do this by checking a pregnancy test. Plan b can temporary cycle dusruptions but in general your period comes on time, .
