Q: morning after pill diarrhea
asked by: Lauren19 on June 13th, 2007

I have posted before about pregnancy and the morning after pill...

i have unprotected sex with my boyfriend. (we use pull out method) but on june 8th he came inside me. I took the morning after pill, Plan B at 7:24pm the next night, and even thought the directions said take the next pill 12 hours later, i took it 14 hours later. I really am not sure when my period is due. most likely late june-early july...ever since june 8th i have been feeling extreeemley bloated and peeing alot. i dont know if those symptoms are what happens when you take the pill. i also havent had a bowel movement in 3 days, so i asked my mom what would help, and she gave me 2 pill laxative things, and now i woke up at 2 am with extremmme pain in my stomach and diarreha..is it early preg symptoms?? can you get preg symptoms this early???

Yes 5 days is a bit early to have pregnancy symptoms and 2 laxative pills could be the culprit for the diarhea.

If you had unprotected sex on June 8th, the zygote would not have even implanted yet. that takes about 2 weeks. Your symptoms are probably due to the laxative you took. My advice is to wait this out and see what happens in a couple of weeks. Then I would suggest speaking with a health professional about proper birth control choices so that next month you don'e have to experience this kind of stress again.

Your diarrhea is obviously caused by the laxatives you took and is not related to any pregnancy symptoms whatsoever.

As far as taking the morning after pill, it is hormones, hormones can mess up your cycle. The fact that you are having bloating and urinary frequency issues probably has more to do with pms than any pregnancy symptoms.
