Hi,
Last August (2011) I took Plan B after a condom broke. I had my period a week later. Since then, I've only had periods in December, February and March. I don't know what's going on and I don't have money to see a doctor. I've taken so many pregnancy tests, but they're all negative.

Also recently, about a week ago, I started have period-like cramps after sex.However, I still never got my period. Does anyone have an idea what this can be?

Please help me! I'm so confused and scared about what's going on! Sad

Hi,
Welcome to ehealthforum,
The bleeding that you experienced after using ECP/Plan-B could be the withdrawal bleeding. Since the pills contain high hormonal dosage, these can disrupt your menstrual cycles. If you have still not had your periods, you should consider visiting your doctor/gynecologist for further evaluation to look for the underlying cause for your absent periods (especially rule out ovarian suppression or failure). Treatment as appropriate (based on examination findings and investigations results) would be started to help you get your periods and regulate your periods. Be in regular monitoring and follow-up with your treating doctor/gynecologist and report any new/abnormal symptoms immediately. Take adequate rest. Drink plenty of water. Maintain healthy diet and lifestyle.
Take care.
