A member asked:

Took plan b after broken condom because of delay in start of birth control pack, period should come soon, having brown discharge. could i be pregnant?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe not, but...: Plan B can alter the menstrual bleeding 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.
