Hello,
Welcome to the forum. If the periods were expected just 1 day after having the unexpected intercourse, then chances of pregnancy are less. Pregnancy occurs only during the time of ovulation. Ovulation is the release of a single, mature egg from a follicle that developed in the ovary. It usually occurs regularly, around day 14 of a 28-day menstrual cycle. Once released, the egg is capable of being fertilized for 12 to 48 hours before it begins to disintegrate. So pregnancy is less likely.
Secondly, taking Plan B within 72 hours of intercourse protects against pregnancy to a great extent. Your girlfriend had taken the plan B pill within the time limit for Plan B and so pregnancy seems unlikely.
Thirdly, apart from the side effects of nausea, abdominal pain, fatigue, headache, breast tenderness; a change in menstrual periods is an important side effect of Plan B pill. With Plan B, the periods should be delayed. The periods should come within 7 days of the expected date. If the periods are delayed by more than 7 days, then please ask your girlfriend to consult her doctor and get serum HCG done.
I hope it helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing or if you have any additional doubts. Kind regards.
