At 2 months late a pregnancy test would
HAVE to show up positive. The morning
after pill can cause your periods to be
slightly irregular for a bit afterwards.
Perhaps making an appt with your doctor
would be a good idea to figure out why it
is your missing your periods if you still
don't get one

Those aren't likely and are rare.

You can take another test if it's
bothering you. But it's much more likely
that the Plan B pill made your cycle
irregular. I would personally wait until
July, but if it's really bothering you, a
pregnancy test can help put your fears to
rest.

I would personally wait until July to test
again, yes. But if this is really
bothering you, waiting 10 days might do
more harm than good. Pregnancy tests are a
cheap way of putting your mind at ease, so
if you think you need to know now, you
should take a test now.

I'd test on July 6th if it hasn't come
yet. Take the test first thing in the
morning before you've emptied your
bladder. If you're pregnant, the hormones
will be most concentrated then from
sitting in your bladder all night. It's
the most accurate time of day to test.

Plan B can have some lasting side effects
on your cycle. If everything doesn't go
back to normal around three months after
taking the pill then you should speak with
a doctor.
After taking the morning after pill you
can't expect your period at any particular
time. It could come early, late, spotting
in between, really heavy, really light...
and it will be completely normal. The fact
that you've had at least spotting every
month so far sounds normal and it wouldn't
surprise me if the extremely light
spotting WAS your period for the month.
Eventually, things should even themselves
back out and your periods should go back
to normal. You can keep testing for
pregnancy, but this sounds normal
considering you took plan b.
