Plan B one-step, ovulation, periods

I took plan b one-step during possible ovulation. I started bleeding a couple days later, it was like a normal period. (I heard this is common)

when will I be expected to ovulate again? and When should I start my period again?

Hello,
This bleeding looks like breakthrough bleeding after taking the post coital pills. You should wait for the periods and you should get it on time. Regarding ovulation, You can note down few signs of ovulation like during ovulation the cervical mucus(discharge) increases and is of watery or raw egg white consistency; there is increase in basal body temperature; breast tenderness. It can be detected by an OPK (Ovulation predictor test kit) which is tested with the help of urine.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing
