Hello,
Thanks for your question.
Yes, this bleeding is a normal or expected thing after unwanted72.
It may last for 7-10 days & it indicates that the pill has worked.
I hope I have given you the desired information.
Unwanted 72 is not a regular birth control & will only cover the incident for which it was taken.
Use some regular birth control if you are not ready for a pregnancy.
Take care.
