You didn't mention when you took the pill.
-Means after how many hours of the intercourse you took the pill.
-At which part of your menstrual cycle you took the pill.
-How many days back it occurred.
If you provide these details I can answer your questions.

Hi,
As you took the emergency pill within 24 hours of the intercourse possibly it will give protection towards pregnancy.
Emergency pill can alter the menstrual cycle depending on the period of menstrual cycle when you took it.
As you took the pill in the first half of the cycle it might have preponed your cycle, that may be responsible for your present bleeding.

Now your questions:
1.Bleeding due to emergency pill will usually subside soon. So, if your bleeding is gradually decreasing day by day, you can wait and watch.
But if your bleeding is not decreasing or increasing in quantity better to consult gynecologist once.
2.If you do not mention about the pill, doctor may think that your inter-menstrual bleeding can be because of some other causes like hormonal imbalance, thyroid abnormality etc. and will order battery of investigations. So better to tell during examination when you will be alone with her .
3.Usually the bleeding should subside by 5 to 7 days. But this can vary from person to person.
