There could be a chance but I doubt it. Go to the doctor and get a blood test to be sure.

Plan B is a huge dose of hormones. It screws with your cycle. I doubt you're pregnant.

That's true, but is also is only most effective if taken before ovulation. So, since we don't know when she was supposed to ovulate, maybe a blood test would be best. Especially if her period doesn't come soon.

According you you, your period is 2 days late. I'd wait on that blood test for awhile.

id say your not pregnant. and when used correctly pregnancy test are usually acurate. sont think just because your buddy had 3 neg and she was thats going to happen to you. because that doesnt hapen that often.

could just be an irregular period.
