I don't think you're supposed to take it more than once a cycle, and I reckon it'll play havoc with your period. When did you take it? Because what will happen depends on which times of the month you took it.
Usually it causes an early period, and then a late one. It can be early or late by two weeks or more. For some people these periods are lighter than usual, but for others more painful.
Basically just wait for a period...if you don't get one you can take a pregnancy test. It would have been pretty effective the first time (especially if you took it within 24 hours), not sure how it would work the second time.

Plan B, as you know, is a hell of a lot of hormones all at once, and it can really screw with your cycle. I don't think there is any way to know exactly how it will change your cycle this month, but you may not be getting your period on time.
If I were you, I would take a pregnancy test when you would normally get your period, just in case because Plan B is not 100% effective.

i had to do the same thing -- take it for two emergencies in the same cycle. i had my normal cycle (Nov5), so i was sure that i wasn't pregnant, then two weeks after that (Nov 19), i had another cycle. then that was done, then two weeks after that, another one (Dec 10). Kinda scary but at least for sure I know I'm not pregnant.
Now, I just started regular birth control, so it should be getting back to regular (28 days) (I hope). hopefully those hormones will be back in place. goodluck to you!

You took it twice before your next cycle?
I'm pretty sure you're not supposed to do that...so I wouldn't really count on a normal period. That's a lot of hormones!

when i took it, it just made my cycle super regular. but i did get really really awful cramps that month. it shouldn't really affect your cycle but if you're worried, talk to your doctor or call planned parenthood.

your period cycle might be interrupted.. (it can come faster of it can be late) but it usually returns to normal cycle after the first period.
