Hey! Were you ovulating when you had sex? ^^

But I have had sex a handful of times since taking it… however, I took multiple pregnancy tests a couple days ago and it was negative

Ovulation is typically four ish days (different for everyone) after menstruation and plan b doesn’t actually work during those times (yeah.. we don’t get told that) but using plan b and not being on birth control and will make your period be irregular, for the most accurate pregnancy test it would be two weeks after last intercourse (as sperm can cause a false positive)

Better safe than sorry! I also recommend condoms not just for ease of mind of pregnancy and STIs/STDs but also sex can mess up your pH balance down there easier and can give you a yeast infection or worse ^^ those also can affect your menstruation

We’ve always used condoms since I am not on birth control! Like you said, better safe than sorry! I just took the plan B that one time because the condom broke 😭

Solid chance it changed your regular menstrual cycle! Plan B prevents ovulation (so if you’re already ovulating it does nothing…) therefore can delay the period of even make it early and cause the spotting ^^ Def recommend tracking your period so you know your ovulation since you’re not on birth control. You should regulate out soon though

Yes I will for sure start tracking my period! Thank you so much again! Do you think that light spotting that I mentioned I had a couple weeks ago for a few days was my period?

It could be, it could also be breakthrough bleeding where your period was suppose to take place but didn’t due to the plan b, at the same time people can spot during implantation of pregnancy (but in your case, it doesn’t seem like it, just for future reference and why I recommend pausing on the sex a bit and taking another test) but you sound in the clear!
