    Do not buy this if you have a sense of humanity. I use to take this when I was younger and I used to take it a lot for â??in the momentâ? things. I took it in early February.

    It worked, but afterwards my period came 1 week early, but the next period came 3 weeks late! Took test not pregnant but still was a little nervous. The pill is effective but may throw your period off.

    This was not my first time taking Plan B, however the experience has been similar during the 3 times over many years I've had to use it. After a lusty mishap with my ex (omitted condom, no birth control) during a potential ovulation timeframe (aka exactly 14-15 days before my next expected period on my very regular 28-29 day cycle), flipped out and took Plan B 2.5 hours after intercourse.
