Hello dear
I understand your concern
Repeated use of the I pill is not safe as it cause hormonal imbalance and menstrual irregularity.
The spotting that you have could be a progesterone withdrawal bleeding.
Or it could be a preparative stage of the period.
Breakthrough bleeding occur due to high progesterone in the pill.
Your period may be delayed/earlier and may be excessive bleeding occurs.
Chance of pregnancy is less as you had sex in the safe phase of the period.
Use I pill only in the emergency situation.
Hope this may help you
