Question : I took plan b on may 31 or June 1st not sure quite which date but i took it the day after i had gotten fingered by the man not sure if he had cum on his fingers so i took it as a caution we didn't actually have intercourse but i was scared to get pregnant through fingering.... I have not yet gotten my period and today is day 34 of my cycle i do usually get my period anywhere from 31-37 days on a normal cycle. my breast do feel slightly tender like they usually do before i get my period. i am scared though since i have not gotten it yet,is there chance of pregnancy even though i have not had intercourse.. or is my period just late because of plan b please help~! also, if it helps Ive had bad virus/with flu like symptoms could that be reason period is delayed ... the day the fingering happened was the day after my period calculator said i stopped being fertile

Brief Answer:
Delay due to plan B

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Fingering cannot make you pregnant.
Yes the delay in period is because of the plan B and the stress and illness.
Go ahead and take a pregnancy test anyway, it will reassure you.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care
