Plan B: Anyone having intercourse without birth control or condoms may get pregnant. Good choice using Plan B. Plan b is a high dose of birth control to disrupt the hormonal patterns to delay or prevent ovulation. Abnormal bleeding after is common. Check preg test in 10-14 days after use to confirm that it worked

Probably safe: You are probably not pregnant. I suggest you take a pregnancy test 1 week after a missed period.
