A member asked:

Started period jan 12th tru the 17th had sex during that time but took a plan b pill and now it seems like i started period today 25 th why so soon?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Common: It is fairly common to have some irregularity in bleeding after the use of the morning after pill like plan b. If you are concerned about pregnancy, a simple urine pregnancy test would be helpful as Plan B is not 100% effective to prevent pregnancy.
