My period is a week late - Please read and share some advice

Posted , 3 users are following.

I had sex on December 13th and my friend finished inside of me, but with a condom on. I hadn't had sex in almost a year and so I got nervous and took Plan B within 10 hours.

On December 20th, he and I had sex again. We switched between oral and vaginal sex many times - each time using a different condom. We probably used around 15. At one point, he put his penis inside without a condom for 4-5 seconds before we put a condom back on. During this time he did not finish. I wanted to be safe than sorry so I took Plan B again - within 10 hours.

My last period was December 3 - 6. My period was supposed to start on January 2nd, but I have not had it yet. I took pregnancy tests on January 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th and they were all negative. I am just over a week late on my period.

I know plan b isn't meant to be a "normal" form of contraception. I really don't have sex often for anxiety reasons. I don't know what to do next. The tests have all been negative and I still have not bled at all.

Any advice or thoughts would be helpful.

    The chances of your being pregnant with the scenario you describe above are almost non-existent! I feel certain your body will sort its cycle out in its own time. I know there is no point telling you to relax, it would be the wrong thing to say, but wishing you all the best.

      I dont think you need to do anything! Just sit tight and wait for your period to start in its own sweet time. The hormones in the emergency contraceptive will certainly have an impact, and two doses close together will be a shock to your cycle. I think you have conclusively proved youre not pregnant, so really just wait for longer and try to not worry. If nothing happens for a month take another test to reassure and go to a obgyn, but i suspect things will start again before then...
