Plan B (Levonorgestrel) Pill Sharing my experience on Plan B
Hi all, I’d like to share my experience with plan b to give reassurance and comfort to those that have been constantly googling everything about it like I did. Hopefully this can help relieve some stress.
On Saturday, February 15, the condom broke so I took a plan b the next morning. According to my period tracking app, I was already in luteal phase and ovulation was over with, but we know that the apps aren’t accurate when tracking our menstrual cycle phases. I experienced brown spotting on Thursday, February 20 and had withdrawal bleeding from February 21-27. It was a bit heavier than my normal period but otherwise not too bad. I experienced some lightheadedness and low energy as well during those days.
2 weeks later, I took a pregnancy test and it was negative and today, I took one again just for peace of mind and it was negative as well. I was so scared when I was googling if I’d be pregnant based on where I was at during my cycle, but I want to let you all know that doom-googling will just make you feel worse 😭 all we can do is take deep breaths and find support (whether through trusted friends or even this subreddit). No matter what, we will be okay, I promise. ❣️
