 Hello,
Yes, plan B or emergency contraception like this contains strong hormones which can alter your periods and heavy bleeding is a common side effect. It could even take a few months to get into a regular "normal" cycle again. It is nothing to be alarmed about and shedding the lining of the uterus is how it prevents pregnancy.
You may wish to discuss a better method of preventive birth control which will not wreak such havoc on your hormones in the future.
Best wishes.
