Hello dear
I understand your concern
Bleeding after taking I pill is due to breakthrough bleeding caused by progesterone withdrawal effect.
It will very light in amount and will disappear in 2-3 days.
Chance of the pregnancy is very less as you had sex in the safe period of cycle and took I pill with in hour of the sex (highly effective- 95-98% in preventing the pregnancy).
Your period may be delayed or earlier as it cause hormonal imbalance.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, do regular stretching exercise and walking, drink plenty of water
Hope this may help you
