What Are The Side Effects Of Plan-B?

Hi, my boyfriend and I had sex but the condom broke. He didn t ejaculate when it broke but I was still really scared so I took plan b. I didn t have any side effects that day I took it, but the day after I felt really sick and I couldn t really eat anything. I also felt really tired and lethargic. Is this because of the plan b?

1. Plan B is an emergency contraceptive used in birth control pills to prevent pregnancy and tiredness,dizziness,abdominal pain,nausea,vomiting,breast tenderness, change in vaginal bleeding,headache are usual side effects related with plan B which you are experiencing.

PS. If any of above symptoms persists or worsens tell your doctor or pharmacist immediately. [since it can be bought without prescription and without proof of age]

2. Since it a contraceptive pill and not abortion pill thus will not work if you are already pregnant, thus check with home pregnancy test for the same and also does not protect against STD's [sexually transmitted disease] thus also check with Venereal test.
