Hello and thank you for your question.
Yes the plan b is a hormonal manipulation intended to stop pregnancy. You should not need to take plan b if you are already on birth control and using condoms. Adding extra hormones can cause irregular bleeding and it can take a few months for your cycles to get back to normal.
