Hi i have a question me and my boyfriend had sex last month and it wasnt planned so we didnt use anything even though he didnt cum inside of me and i washed my slef right away i decided to take plan B on the third day i got my period a couple of days later, however i havent gotten my period for the month of aug. And in 2 days should be my sept period. I went for my check up 2 weeks ago im not preg and they took urine and blood for stds and no call from them which is a good thing. So can using plan B be the cause that i havent gotten my period this month? (btw im irregular and ive also used planB month of june also)

Well if I'm understanding your dates correctly...you had sex a month ago, took PlanB 3 days later, then two weeks after than you went for your checkup and pregnancy test was negative. So if you don't get your Sept. period, then that will be 2 skipped periods?

So if I'm getting all of that right, then there can be a few possible things. #1, Plan B can delay your period; however, I'm pretty sure it would just be later and wouldn't cause you to skip an entire month. #2, You could just be stressed and you already have irregular periods, so it's just delaying your period even more. I have regular periods but due to stress I skipped an entire month once and that was after no possible way I could be pregnant. #3, Two weeks after sex may not have been enough time for your hormone levels to show up on a pregnancy test or your blood levels may not have shown pregnancy just yet.

So I think it can be any of the three factors and it could be a number of other things. I think you should take a home pregnancy test just in case if you don't get your period again this month. If it comes back negative, I think you should pay a visit to the doc again because it's not good to skip 2 periods. Birth control should help regulate it and you wouldn't have to worry about Plan B so much, especially since it shouldn't be used as a regular form of birth control, only for "accidents."

misfitschik66 agony auntYup I've actually taken Plan B a few times once i got pregnant even thought i took it twice within 72 hours

and the other times i also thought i was pregnant because my period was so late

my doctor told me sometimes in rare cases some woman won't get there period at all and not get it for like 4 months
