Brief Answer:
Positive sign of safety provided.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for posting your query.

Withdrawal bleeding after consuming the emergency pill confirms the safety provided by the pill most often. Also, if you have taken the pill prior to ovulation, the effect is to inhibit ovulation; at the time of ovulation, the effect is to inhibit fertilization and if taken after fertilization, the effect is to impair implantation.

So, if you have taken the pill within the stipulated time after the intercourse, you have very high chances of protection. Moreover, if the intercourse happened during the safe period, there is no need of the pill at all in the first place since you are naturally protected.

Hope your query has been clarified. Please feel free to contact for further information. I will be happy to help.

regards,

Brief Answer:
Yes.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing back.

Though the withdrawal bleeding is evidence enough to confirm the efficacy of the medication, standard protocol is to wait for the next natural period to occur. Please remember that after the pill usage, the next natural period may get delayed by a week or two and you should get specialist's help if you do not see your next natural period even after ten days after it is due.

Hope this helps. Please contact if you need any more information.

regards,
Shanti.V.
