Posted on Wed, 8 Feb 2017
Question: 2 MISSED PERIODS TOOK PLAN B TWICE IN 2 MONTHS. LAST INTERCOURSE USING A CONDOM BOTH TIMES WAS DEC 23RD. TOOK PLAN B WITH 1HR JUST TO BE SAFE. ALL NEGATIVE TEST RESULTS AND I TOOK 10 OF THEM.
First intercourse was Nov 15th using a condom and taking plan b with 1/2hr. Had period on the 22nd of November. No period in December. I had intercourse on Dec 23rd using a condom correctly and taking plan b within 1/2hr. As of today no period but have the cramping. ALL negative test results. I am having a lot of night sweats also. I am 48yrs old (almost 49). I just took another pregnancy test and negative. Chance of being pregnant ??

Brief Answer:
Pregnancy not likely.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Since all the tests are negative even after 25 days of intercourse pregnancy is ruled out. The delayed periods and night sweats could be due to per menopausal symptoms.
No need to worry. Get your FSH levels tested to diagnose menopause.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Thank you for your help. I will test for menopause. By taking Plan b could that delay my period further ?

Brief Answer:
Plan B can delay the periods by 2-3 wees.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,
Thanks for writing in again.

Plan B can delay the periods by 2-3 weeks but not so late. This seems to be a menopause related concern.

Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
