Ok, we had sex very early friday morning,
little after midnight. Condom broke. We
didn't know what to do. My girlfriend is
on birthcontrol, but she said she missed
one day. So saturday we went and got plan
b. She took the first pill around noon,
about 36 hours after sex. An hour before
the she took the next one, she said she
started bleeding. I know this is a side
effect, but what does it mean, is it
working?
From other things i've read online, it
seems like most girls get this at least a
few days after, not within the first 12
hours. One more thing, I guess she hasn't
had her period for about 4 months because
of her birth control. One of our friends
said this is probably a good thing. Should
it affect anything?
Thanks in advance for any help. We're both
still kinda freakin out.

Your girlfriend's breakthrough bleeding
could very well be caused by her missed
pill, but I don't think it can be taken as
a sign that plan b is working properly.
If she took plan B properly and early
enough (which it sounds like she did), you
should be fine. Nothing to worry about.
