1. Since you have taken the said pill within 72 hours thus will protect you from pregnancy and the bleeding you are experiencing is called as 'breakthrough bleeding' and usually occurs due to hormonal imbalance, however if it continues for long time consult your doctor immediately.

2. Practice safe sex from next time.
