Period 3 weeks late??
Okay so, my period is 3 weeks late. On Friday Aug. 18 i was *supposed* to get it. Before this however, I was supposed to get my birth control at Planned parenthood. When i went in they told me to come in on Aug. 16th for an appointment. While here they conducted a Chlamydia test and a pregnanc test. Both came back negative. The woman told me to start my birth control that very day. I informed them that since they didnt give me my pills the week before I had taken Plan b as a precaution. They told me this would not interfere with my birth control. Flash forward to now, my period STILL has not come. I took a pregnancy test last week and that came back negative as well.. i took plan b before and my period was only a week late.. im very confused and currently not trusting the pregnancy tests I took.. what could be causing the late period??

Follow the Planned Parenthood's instructions for taking the pill BUT it is not surprising you have not started your period. Plan B will mess up your cycle. It's a big dose of hormones (how it works) and being irregular for 2 to 3 months after taking it is common. And then adding the pill onto it, being late is not surprising. When exactly you are safe to have unprotected sex is a good question though. Have you asked PP this question? I would just to be safe. good luck hon
Also; I took plan b because i did not have my birth control from aug. 6-16 when my appointment was and the condom had broken.
