Late period and Plan B?

I took Plan B on March 29th after my boyfriend's condom broke, and the following Sunday, I got a heavy period that only lasted three days, and it was a week or so earlier than my normal cycle. I should have gotten my regular period last week if I were on cycle, but I still have not gotten it. Should I be worried about this late period meaning I might be pregnant, or is this typical?

    Your period isnt late! That three days heavy period was it!

    The pill "resets" your period and you wont be on the same cycle anymore.

    Its a heavy dose of hormones and can make you get your period early, which is good cause youre NOOTT pregnant.

    The pill can make your period really heavy and short, thats what happened to me.

    Its completely normal.

    Start counting 28 days from when you got your period this time (the 3 day one)

    If you have any more questions on the pill go hereee

    My friend took plan B and she said that it kind of messed up her cycle the next month, but after that she was back on track. I think it probably just messes with your hormones, so they just need to get straightened out and you will be back to your normal cycle in a few weeks. If you are super worried, maybe just take a pregnancy test to be sure, but I don't think I would be too concerned if I were you.
