Q: Can plan B affect multiple periods?

I took plan B almost two months ago, a week before my normal period. I got my period two days later. Here I am a month later and I'm almost a week late. I took a pregnancy test and it was negative. Can plan B affect multiple periods?

Yep.

It usually takes around three months for your body to regulate itself again, but sometime it can take longer.

Have you considered birth control pills or anything? It can help regulate everything sooner.

I'm in a similar situation. About a 6 1/2 weeks ago I took the Plan B, got my normal period 5 days later. This month I havent gotten it yet - and it's about a week overdue. I think that it's just the Plan B effecting my cycle but I'm still stressed. How did it work out for you you? How late was it?
