Could Dark Brown Spotting With History Of Having Unprotected Sex During Periods Followed By Intake Of Pill Suggest Pregnancy?
Hi, my last period was December 23, 2013. My period usually last about 6 days. On the sixth day of my period boyfriend and I had sex but the condom broke and he ejaculated inside me. Within 12-15 hours of the incident we bought the Next Choice One Dose pill. Now 6 days after taking the emergency contraceptive I believe I'm spotting due to the fact that I've had dark brown almost black discharge. Am I pregnant?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
No chance of the pregnancy because
You did sex on last day of period and it is completely safe period of the cycle.
You also took emergency contraceptive pill with in hours and it is highly effective in preventing the pregnancy.
The spotting and discharge is due to hormonal imbalance caused by the pill only.
It is due to progesterone withdrawal effect. It will goes off in next 2-4 days.
Your next period could be come early or delayed due to hormonal imbalance caused by the pill.
Avoid stress,take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, maintain proper pelvic hygiene, maintain proper pelvic hygiene.
Use condom in future to prevent the unwanted pregnancy.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
