Hi everyone I am new to this forum and I am so glad I found this place:)
So my question is what is the probabilty that I am pregnant even after taking the Plan B?
Here's my situation:
On April 16th around 1-2am my bf and I had unprotected s_x. The following day 4/17 thru Monday night 4/18 we continued to have unprotected s_x repeatedly. I decided to take the Plan B on 4/19 at around 5-5:30am. I took both pills at the same time. I'm due for my period on 5/4/11. I have been feeling some slight pregnant-like symptoms such as mild crampings here and there, headaches, nausea, gassiness, fatigues (sleepy and tired more than usual, tender br___ts, and heartburn. I have not spotted or bled at all. According to my doctor I was definitely in my ovulation period when my bf and I had unprotected s_x.
Can someone please give their honest opinion on this? I would be happy if I was pregnant..but please don't sugarbush it, just tell me what my real possibilities are in regards to being pregnant.
Thanks!

Yes, normally ovulation is 14 days before menstruation, in this case April 20th. A double dose of PlanB should have made your uterus pretty unreceptive, even if you did produce an egg and it got fertilized. There is reason to hope that your signs are due to the hormones in the drug, and not pregnancy. PlanB can do odd things to your system, including mess with the next menstruation. A home preg test May 8th using first morning pee would be pretty reliable. GL!

Thanks for the response Grandpa Viv:)
So you don't think there's a chance that I could have still gotten pregnant? I'm just wondering because I've been reading about all the ovulation process and how Plan B cannot stop anything once the egg has been fertilized. My period is normal and comes around the same time every month. My mouth has been kind of dry lately too. How long does the effects of plan b stay in your system?

Also, if an egg was fertilized and didn't attach to my uterus since one of the effects of plan b is to make me shed wudnt that mean that I should have at least spotted or started m period earlier?

There is always a chance. PlanB can do weird things, especially a double dose. The only thing you can do is ride out the storm and test as appropriate. GL!
