Took Emergency Contraceptive Pill After Having Unprotected Sex. Having Vaginal Bleeding. Is It Due To Medication Or Implantation Bleeding?
Hi, I have had unprotected sex on sunday morning at 2am (after finishing my period on saturday night) and i took the morning after pill on Monday night at 730pm. Since monday evening i have had vaginal blood discharge (just like a period). Also, after taking the pill, i had normal bowel movements around two hours later. Should i be worried about the vaginal blood discharge (does it mean it is implantation bleeding?) and also should i take another pill since i had bowel movements? Thanks!

Hello,
History noted. From your history its clear cut that this does not lead to pregnancy. The pill you have taken in precaution is fine. No need at all to repeat it due to bowel movement you had 2 hours later. Regarding the vaginal discharge, it is the remnant of your normal periods which will be there if intercourse occurs 2 or 3 days after regular periods. Nothing to worry.
Good day.

Hi, Niktick,
Thanks for query.
As you had taken emergency contraceptive pill within 48 hours of sex and you had sex in safe period i.e. on first day of your cycle so there is no chance of having pregnancy.
Ok and bye.
