BC then Plan B, how does it affect my period?

Question

My old partner came inside of me, and I had forgotten to take my bc pill on that day, so he bought me plan b to take for that day. I resumed taking my bc normally as i would for the rest of the month. I'm on my sugar pill week and I'm just wondering if the plan b will affect my period as much?

Answer

I'm guessing it might, I've never taken plan B but I've heard it does. Normally missing one pill won't make you ovulate, you'd have to miss more than one for a possible ovulation. If you read your info paper in your pill pack, it will most likely say that if you miss one pill you don't have to use backup protection. I'm only saying this because taking plan B and the pill can mess things up with your cycle so if you can avoid it its probably best.
