OBGYN 's  Response
Hello,
Since you have taken the emergency pill, breakthrough bleeding may occur as the pill contains high levels of hormone that disturbs the normal hormonal pattern. As you have the pill within the stipulated time interval, your chances of conception are low. The breakthrough bleed may last for up to a week. If you do not get your next cycle within 10-14 days of the expected date, please contact your consultant for further advice. Take care.
