A member asked:

I had my period from 12-16.9 and on 17.9 i took an emergency contraception. on, 22.9 i started bleeding. it's like my period came again. is it normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Hormonal changes by plan B can induce bleeding after the level of plan B hormones falls. If you do not wish to be pregnant, use contraception all the time, every time. You may consider implanted contraceptive, or IUD. Practice safe sex. Get HPV vaccine
