I'm really paranoid, I know. So, I am usually a huge stickler for my birth control. I am on the patch. But, this past month, I took off my patch a day late, and then I didn't put the next one on almost two days late. I had sex on one of the days that I didn't have on the patch.. my in between stage.. I was at the tail end of my period, but I still hadn't put on another patch. So, I couldn't get to the pharmacy because the holidays, everything was shut down, but I got the patch on on Tuesday (it should've been on on Sunday evening), and then I still was scared, so I took the Plan B, but not until Thursday (which would have been three and a half days after I had sex).. Thursday is today. Anyway, my stomach has been in knots all day and I'm wondering if it's a side effect of the Plan B, or if it's my body resisting the Plan B? I know this sounds ridiculously silly, but what are the chances?

if you had sex at the end of your period then the chances are very slim because you dont usually ovulate until day 14 of your cycle. from what ive read the plan b can have nausea as a side effect.
