Is Delayed Periods Sign Of Pregnancy Or Due To Plan B Intake?

hi, i had unprotected sex for the first time ever on september 13. my period was 4 days long and ended on september 12. i took plan b within 8 hours of having sex and bled for a few days after. it has now been 29 days since ive had sex and i havent had any sexual contact since then. ive taken 6 tests all which have come up negative. i havent gotten my period yet but i feel crampy as if im about to start. is it possible that im getting my period late because of the plan b pill?

Hi,

Delayed periods can happen after taking planB or other related emergency contraceptive pills. Nothing much to worry as your all your pregnancy tests came as negative. You can go for a serum betaHCG test for confirmation.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
