Side Effects of Emergency Contraception

2017-10-25 17:50:00
Hi I took an emergency contraceptive pill a week ago and I am now experiencing bleeding. I have seen online where they say if you are over 165lbs Plan B will not work and I am 220lbs. I don't know how to distinguish the pill's bleeding, my period, or implantation bleeding.

Only way to differentiate is to wait for another two weeks and if the periods get delayed do a urine pregnancy test to clear doubts on pregnancy.
