Brief Answer:
Withdrawal bleeding due to pill, almost nil chances of pregnancy
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. If you had intercourse on the 6 th day of her menstrual cycle, then the chances of pregnancy are almost nil.
Moreover, withdrawal bleeding occurs within 5-7 days of taking the emergency contraceptive pill. The bleeding she is having today is the bleeding due to the pill and is indicative of the fact that the pill was efficacious in preventing the pregnancy. This bleeding will continue for 3-5 days.
There is absolutely nothing to worry.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Brief Answer:
Can consult an OBGYN if uncomfortable
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Mostly, the emergency contraceptive pill induce withdrawal bleeding within 5-7 days.
However, if the bleeding is very heavy and she is uncomfortable, then it is better to consult an OBGYN specialist.
Urine pregnancy test or any pregnancy test will not be informative till 10 days after the intercourse, as pregnancy, if at all it is there, can be detected only 10-14 days after intercourse. So, there is no use of do pregnancy test as of now.
