Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Plan B is not used for a vaginal infection. It is a high dose hormonal pill and is associated with side effects like irregular vaginal bleeding and delayed periods. Do get proper antibiotic treatment for the infection you have.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
