One final Plan B question.?!
Question: Ok, so I have a question. I took Plan B a week into my cycle and within 4 hours of intercourse (after boyfriend pulled out), I took Plan B. I experienced "breakthrough bleeding" for a few days about a week after I took plan B, around when I was supposed to be ovulating. I have not had unprotected sex since then. My period was late and I took 2 pregnancy tests three days after my missed period. Both came out negative. A week later, I still have no period, BUT I have had a brownish/ red discharge for about 4 or 5 days. Would this count as a "light period?" Prior to the discharge, my face was breaking out, I felt severe cramps/ back pain and I was very irritible, like I would feel for a period. Now, the darkish brown/ red discharge has seemed to have stopped and I feel fine. Should I count that as a period? I should also mention that I took Plan B three out of the past four months.
Please let me know!

Taking Plan B that often could really throw off your system, and is probably responsible for the discharge/period. (I don't think anyone can ascertain if it was a true period or not.) You should be on a more regular form of birth control (the Pill, the NuvaRing, or an IUD), so you won't be ingesting such a high dose of hormones so often. Plan B shouldn't be used as your primary form of birth control. Visit your doctor or a Planned Parenthood clinic to learn about your options.
see a doc
you're taking plan B wayyyy too much. why don't you just go on birth control?
