Q: Sex on period and Plan B

I know Plan B is not a birth control but i figured someone in here will know the answers so sorry if this is the wrong place to post.

I started my period on Aug 24 and had sex w/ my boyfriend later that day. He came in me for the 1st time and we got scared. We went and got Plan B and I took it around 5 hours after sex. On my 3rd day of my period i stopped bleeding and now i am extremely scared. i usually have a 5-7 day menstrul period.

Anyone know what my chances of being pregnant are and know why i have stopped my period??? thank you for any help and once again im sorry if this is in the wrong section, im just really nervous..

Your chances at very slim.

You were on your period and took plan b (within 5 hours-- good job!), you're mostlikely not pregnant.

Plan b is a high dosage of hormones and can reallly mess with your mestrual cycle. You may experience some spotting or irregular bleeding, and your period may be heavier, lighter, early, or late for the next 2-3 months.

Try to relax, you're probably not pregnant.
