So I'm on the pill version of birth control and I was 3 days away from having my period (according to the pills) and me and a guy had unprotected sex (I know shame on me, please don't judge I feel bad enough) and he thinks he might of got a little inside so I freaked out and got plan B the next day, 16hrs after we had sex... I took it, and kept taking my birth control but now I'm off my white sugar pills (there's only 4 at the very end for your period to come) and back on my regular pills from my new pack but my period still hasn't come yet??? And it's been like 2/3 days past, my period is NEVER off schedule so I'm freaking out!
Do you think plan B and my birth control combined and produced enough hormones to throw my period off till next week or month?? Or could I possibly be pregnet??
All voices please! I've searched high and low for answers and no one has had this same problem it seems... :,(
I never lose a beat on my birth control either, I've been on it for 2 years now but never taken plan B before.
Can Birth Control & Plan B delay your period??

You were covered by your regular birth control & didn't need Plan B.
Your periods could be irregular for some time as a result of all the artificial hormones. Everyone is different.
Ok I have bad news for all of you who say your taking a plan b while on birth control. Yes! The answer is yes you can get pregnant because you just took a plan b on birth control. The plan b pill voids out your birth control for at least a week maybe 2 don't remember . And how do I know because I did the same s**t I was on the mini pill because of nursing and I thought I missed a b.c. pill so I took a plan b 6 weeks later and 2 days later i had my first ultra sound pic for that pregnancy.
The Plan B hormone does not void the mini pill, because it is a huge dose of the same artificial hormone. You falling pregnant was not down to that.
The other emergency pill, Ulipristal Acetate, can do so, & you'd need to use other protection with that one for the month.
That's definitely false information.
Plan B and the birth control form a massive hormone boost throwing everything off balance including your cycle.
The only thing being voided out is your cycle for the month due to the extra boost of unnecessary hormones.
I know your problem has been resolved, I'm having the same problem you did. My question is did you feel super bloated? Right before your period ended up arriving the next month? I'm feeling like a WHALE.
Hey everyone! So I posted this a loooong time ago, ends up I'm fine after all! My period didn't come till next month because all those hormones threw it off, so no worries! I guarantee you're all fine :)
Hey I did the same thing I'm getting cramps or stings in my abdominal and below a bit should I be worried?
I also have shortness of breathe I'm scared and idk what to do
I did this same thing as well. I'm on the birth control pill and our condom broke so I took plan b as an extra precaution, a few weeks later it broke again so I took another dose. Along with my regular birth control pills I take every morning. I've been told by several people I just won't get my period this month because of all the hormones. Still waiting for it! The waiting game is super difficult
I'm in the same situation! Had sex with my boyfriend on Thursday night and he came inside me, but I took plan B on Sunday morning because I had missed one of my birth control pills that week and took it late once or twice throughout the month. I was supposed to get my period this week (3 days after I had sex) but it still hasn't come and I usually get it every Sunday. Is it because of the plan B that my period is late? should I start my next pack of birth control pills on Sunday even if my period doesn't come by then?
Just continue your pills and keep on the same schedule. The plan B threw off your period till next month, you're fine ;)
Hey I read your story and I'm almost in the exact same boat... could you tell me how your out come was?
Hey I'm in the same boat. Had unprotected sex on my most fertile day. And I'm on the first month of birth control. And I'm on the placebo pills now and nothing. So if you could tell me what happened that would be awesome.
I'm on the same boat currently, could you please tell me what your outcome was?
My outcome was just fine! No pregnancy for me! And still no babies to this day 4 years down the road. (Whew)
I had my period just like normal the next month too.
did everything end up okay?
Can you tell me what your outcome was of this? I'm in the same situation now. I'm on birth control and I took Plan B about 2 weeks ago because my boyfriend thought he maybe didn't pull out in time. Then just this last weekend, he got worried again, so I took Plan B again to make him feel better. I should have had my period yesterday, but still nothing. Please help! Everyone thinks I'm okay and my hormones are just off, but I still have no peace to the mind.
Your hormones are off! Plan B threw your period to next month. At least that's what happened to me, no worries ❤️
You are on birth control. You don't need anything else. It doesn't matter where he ejaculates because you don't ovulate. There is seldom a reason for plan B when you're on the pill.
Thanks for the feedback everyone, I ended up getting my period a few days late. I definitely learned my lesson!
Sounds to me like your responsible so hopefully no one jumps down your throat..
I think your fine and yes all that will alter your hormones. Just keep an eye out for the next week and if all else fails go to the doc for a blood test.
