General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello there I have read through your question and would like to tell you that you have not specified here whether you have taken a low dose levonorgestrel or high dose plan b. If you have taken the low dose regular pill, it will not be effective as an emergency contraception. In case you have taken the Plan B and still not got your periods you should do a pregnancy test seven days after you miss your period. In your case you should do it around 12 december. If you still get a negative pregnancy test you should consult a gynaecologist and get an USG abdomen done. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write. Thank you for choosing healthcare magic.
