Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking Plan B?

My husband and I were thinking about having another baby, but hadn t talked it out at length. Then, had a slip on January 21st. My LMP was January 15th. So, on the 21st, I took Plan B one step. After that, we decided to start trying. I had bleeding 5 days after taking the pill on the 26th, which was 11 days after my last period and that lasted for about 4 days. Two weeks after that on the 7th and 8th, I tracked my ovulation and we had already began trying leading up to, and afterwards to make sure our bases were covered for conception. Can I still get pregnant this cycle, even though I took Plan B?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

As you got withdrawal bleeding after taking emergency contraceptive pill, your cycle might have restarted from that period. And as you mentioned you tracked the ovulation, if you had unprotected intercourse around the time of ovulation, there is possibility of pregnancy. So, if you miss your expected date of periods, that is around 26th, please go for urine pregnancy test once to find out the possibility of pregnancy.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
