No, the emergency after pill contains the synthetic hormone levonorgestrel. A pregnancy test detects the presence of the pregnancy hormone, human chorionic gonadotrophin (hCG). If you’ve had a positive test then you are pregnant. All the best x

Unlikely ... plan b pills are not 100% effective and unlikely to work if take. After 3/5 days (depending the type)

They weren’t exactly plan b they were the cvs brand ones and I would usually take them the same day just later on or the next day

When you say ‘usually take’ - how often have you taken them?! They really aren’t effective (or safe!) to take frequently - going forward I would recommend seeing your doctor for an appropriate form of contraception if you’re not trying to get pregnant. Good luck!

Why are you taking several plan b pills... they are a plan B as opposed to plan A! They are not as effective as other contraception

I don't understand how you get so many plan b pills. I have taken it once, after a chat with a pharmacist, and im 99%sure they ask the question have you taken them before and if so, they must have told you to get a proper contraception
