Welcome to HCM.
You will definitely get withdrawal bleeding after stopping birth control pills for 3 weeks,no need to take plan b pill for this.
There is no significant side effect like frequent urination with birth control pill or plan b pill.
Stomach disturbances usually occurs in some cases on beginning.
You can take it with milk or some food to prevent it.
Otherwise go for fbs,ppbs, urine test to confirm the urine infection and start proper treatment under guidance of your doctor.
