Hello
I understand your concern. Emergency pill causes heavy bleeding because it produces withdrawal bleeding. So there is heavy bleeding after stopping the pill. There is no need to worry. You are protected from the pregnancy. Bleeding occurred means there is no chance of pregnancy.
Bloating can be treated by taking antacid.
Hope this helps.
