Plan B/Morning After Pill - Menstruation

Hi,
Irresponsibly after a few too many glasses of wine I sleep with a male friend. We did use a condom, although I am not sure our encounter was completely protected. My period started on the 22nd of July and the encounter took place on the 3rd of August. My next period came on the 16th of August. On the 25th of August, the condom fell off and I took Plan B. 3 days later on the 29th I had lower abdominal cramping that felt like I was holding a sit-up and began bleeding for 5 days. The doctor told me if I didn't get my period within 2 to 3 weeks of taking plan B I should go back to see her to get a pregnancy test. Therefore my period should arrive latest on the 15th of September. Could the bleeding have been my period? Is there any chance I could be pregnant? When is the latest date I should expect a period? Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi Dancer,
Thanks for the advice. Tonight I might pick up a test. I am still waiting for my period. 2 more days till three weeks, but my chin is breaking out so maybe I should hold out a couple of days as I am pretty sure my period is coming. I will keep you posted.
Thanks again!

An update.
I took a home pregnancy test on Friday September 14th and it came back negative, so I should be fine. Still no period, although I feel a lot better now. I will let you know how this works out!
Thanks for the advice and support!

Hi MissyMolly 22,
I'm sorry to hear you had to go through that. I still haven't gotten my period, it is now 4 days late. (As per the last post my last period started August 16th) I guess I shouldn't really start to worry until Friday when it will be 4 weeks since plan B. From what I've read a week is typical. Although I have been feeling tired but it could just be stress. I am a little worried. Now I am worried about the ectopic thing and cysts! Oh no! This is horrible, and to make matters worse this guy turned out to be a huge jerk. So this so wasn't worth it. I took the negative HP test on Friday, should I go back to the clinic? any advice?

Thanks MissMolly!
Thanks for making me feel better. I should go for tests, I have been tested in the past and have always been negative for STDs, but I guess there is always a chance now. Still no period, now I am a week late. I am sure it will come today. I guess I have a possible 3 more weeks until my period. I took the HP test at home, not at a clinic, but it was also late in the day and I've read that the results are more accurate in the morning. The doctor told me to come back if i didn't get my period in 3 weeks from the date I took the pill, so I went back yesterday but the wait was 2 hours so I left, I should just call my family doctor instead. I will test again on Friday if I don't get my period by then.
Yes, this guy is a jerk. I don't want to get into it.
