Could I Pregnant For Having A Pill Within 16 Hours After Unprotected Sex?

I had unprotected sex four days ago, within about sixteen hours I took a morning after pill. Now that it is four days later for the first time I just had discharge that was clear, with a tiny hint of brown, that was jelly like and kinda stretchy. Is this a normal side effect of the plan b pill, or could I be pregnant. Besides for that weird discharge I haven't had any other symptoms.

Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
No contraceptive measure is 100% effective, success rate depends on time interval between unprotected sex & taking emergency pill. If you are taking it within 24 hours of unprotected sex success rate is more than 90%.
You can have irregular bleeding or your period can be pre-pon or postponed by one week due to pill.
Take care
