Brief Answer:
SIDE EFFECT OF I PILL, NOT PREGNANCY
Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us.
The I pill is an emergency contraceptive pill, and it contains hormones.
It is very common for women to have some kind of bleeding / spotting within some days of taking the I Pill.
What your girlfriend has experienced, is withdrawal bleeding due to the I pill.
Do not worry, as this is not at all a sign of pregnancy.
In case she misses her normal period next month please take a pregnancy test.
But remember that the I pill can delay or prepone your normal period by a week or ten days.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further if you have any doubts.
In case you are satisfied with the answer, then please close the discussion, and kindly rate the answer.
Take care.

Brief Answer:
DETAILED BELOW
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Abortion pills are quite safe if taken under medical guidance.
The pregnancy has to be confirmed and dated by a gynecologist, and then she would prescribe the pills to you ( combination of Mifepristone and Misoprostol ) .
Follow up visit after 2 weeks will confirm that abortion was complete.
There are many risks of taking the pills on your own, such as severe bleeding, infection, incomplete abortion, rare chance of ectopic pregnancy ( pregnancy outside the uterus ) etc.
Hence, once the pregnancy test is positive, then consult a doctor for the needful steps.
All the best.
