Plan B tends, for many if not most people, to alter the menstrual cycle for a couple of months after it is taken. This could mean early or late periods, spotting between periods, etc. This bleeding is nothing to be concerned about. If you are concerned, you can take a pregnancy test 14 or more days after the risk occurred just to put your mind at ease. If the ring of the condom was still snug aaround the base of the penis, it's possible that the fluid you saw around the base wasn't semen but was instead something else, such as sweat from friction, lubrication from your vagina, or any extra lubricant you may have used. As part of effective condom use, the person wearing the condom, or the partner, should hold onto the base of the condom as the penis is being withdrawan to ensure that the condom doesn't slip partially or all the way off. If you're doing that already, terrific! One more thing: You mentioned the cycle app on your phone. Unless you've been tracking your basal body temperature and cervical mucus for several months, it's pretty tough for anyone, either person or phone app, to predict dates of ovulation. If you're interested in this sort of tracking, you can read more about it here: [b][URL=http://www.scarleteen.com/article/body/get_with_the_flow_all_about_fam]Get With the Flow: All About FAM[/URL][/b] So, again, nothing you've described here is setting off alarm bells and you can expect your menstrual cycles to be off for the next few months. How do you feel now? [/QB][/QUOTE]
