I dont know who prescribed you the pill
but they should have explained Plan B is a
high dose of hormones and can cause your
period to not show up on time. All though
there is a small chance of pregnancy with
any Birth Control, Id say its just oyur
hormones out of wack

Has it been at least 14 days since you had
unprotected sex? If so, then the tests
are most likely accurate. Plan B helps
prevent ovulation. The only way you would
have gotten pregnant is if between the
time the sperm entered your body and the
time you took the pill, you ovulated and
then the sperm fertilized the egg. The
chances are low with plan b, but there is
still a chance. However, if it's been at
least two weeks and the tests are
negative, chances are pretty high that its
just the hormones putting your body out of
whack. Also, if you already bled a week
later, chances are very low of you being
pregnant because typically a woman does
not bleed while pregnant, or if she does,
its light bleeding.
