I had my period on nov 22 to 27, had unprotected sex on dec 1 according to a calculator I was fertile :/. He did not come, he pulled out, I took plan b with in 6 hrs. On the 14th I started bleeding which lasted for 4 days, bleeding after plan b is suppose to be considered a period. It was my first time using plan b, yesterday I took a pregnancy test it was negative. Since I was fertile what are the chances that the test is accurate and that plan b worked? Also ive gotten white/clear discharge like normal after my period when I bled after plan b, I dont feel any pregnancy symptoms. Should I take another test or am I okay?

Fertility cannot be accurately calculated unless you’ve been checking your basal body temperature and your cervical mucus on a daily basis and charting the results for an extended period.  Not everyone ovulates on day 14 of the menstrual cycle, counting from the first day of their menstrual period.  Although most women ovulate anywhere between Day 11 – Day 21 of their cycle, not all women do.  Therefore, you may or may not have been fertile at the time of the incident.

Secondly, he did not ejaculate inside of you and you used Plan B within 6 hours of the incident.  Third, you are not experiencing any pregnancy symptoms and the test you took was negative.  Your risk of pregnancy is extremely low, and I wouldn’t worry about taking another pregnancy test unless you skip your next period.

It would be good to seriously consider a more reliable method of birth control so you don’t need to worry so much again.  If you are interested in trying a hormonal method, please call one of our offices and make an appointment.  We can give you information about all of your contraceptive options.
