Brief Answer:
It is due to frequent use of Postinor.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
When was your last period before taking the Postinor on 19th of APril ?
You are taking Postinor very frequently.
When you take it this say casually and frequently, then it will lead to irregular bleeding and irregular periods.
That is the reason for this bleeding.
You will have unpredictable irregular bleeding for 1 - 2 cycles, and then it will stabilize, provided you take no more hormonal pills until then.
Use condoms till your menses stabilize.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.

Brief Answer:
As below.

Detailed Answer:
Yes, so now you would have some unexpected bleeding / spotting for a month or two at the most.
It should stabilize within a month, just do not take any more hormones indiscriminately.
