Is There A Chance Of Pregnancy After Taking Plan B?
Hi, I'm 18 and I took Plan B Next Step after my boyfriend and I had sex. He did not cum without the condom, however for a brief moment (very "brief"), he was without one. In saying this, the day of taking Plan B Next Step, I appeared to have dark brown "spotting" which turned into a heavy, deep red with little clotted strands. This continued for 8 days in which the bleeding got lighter the second to the last day and then completely stopped. I am confused. I do not know if this could be a sign of implantation bleeding or my period. At the time I was taking rather large dosages of vitamin C which I have heard induce your periods. Is there a possibility of pregnancy in this situation?
(I was due to have my period the day before I took plan B)

Hello dear
I understand your concerns
Do not worry.
Chance of pregnancy is nil as you did sex when your period was due.
It is completely safe period of cycle and no ovulation occur at this time and no more fertilization will occur.
Again plan B pill also effectively prevent pregnancy.
I think bleeding is your normal period.
Implantation bleeding is just for 1-2 days and just like spotting associate with cramp.
Pill can cause excessive bleeding as it contain high progesterone.
If your next period will delay by more than 2week then consult gynecologist
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, do regular exercise, maintain proper pelvic hygiene
Hope this helps you
Best regards
