What Causes Irregularities In Menstruation?

I'm 16 and my boyfriend and I had sex on the 21st, the day after I got off my period (it lasted 4 days, I'm really irregular and I have short periods) and the p o s condom broke and he "relieved" himself inside me, so we immediately got plan b. I took it about 30 minutes after having sex. And then I took the second pill 12 hours later. 3 days after that I got like another period that lasted 3 days. It couldn't have been spotting because it was too heavy, or maybe it could have. I don't really know. Well when I was supposed to start my period I got some cramps in my lower back but my period never came. I took a pregnancy test a couple days after my missed period and then another one a couple days after that. Both of them were negative. I am now 20 days late and I'm getting spotting. Am I pregnant? Or is it from plan b? I'm super stressed out too because I over analyze everything. I CAN'T be pregnant. My parents would execute. Somebody help me?

Hello, and I hope I can help you today.

It is very common and normal to have your
cycle be abnormal after using plan B. You used the product immediately after your condom accident which also has the greatest chance of preventing pregnancy. Many women have a small amount of bleeding a few days after taking the pills, this is a good sign that it worked. And you have done many negative pregnancy tests.

So I really do not think you need to worry about pregnancy from this particular encounter. It will probably take until your next real cycle for your period to come again normally.

I hope this information was helpful and thaf I was able to answer your question.

Best wishes, Dr. Brown
