My normal period date is on 3rd-5th of month. I had been intimate with my boyfriend on 14th of this april without penetration but with touching his penis on the surface of vagina.. Took ipill just after 4 hours to be really sure. Now after 10 days on 24th apr I am experiencing brown bleeding with cramps ,sometimes red blood also.. I took HPT on the very day n got negative. I am freaked out if I m pregnant as according to other forums it could be implantation bleeding.. Please tell me if it is implantation or withdrawal bleeding? How do I be sure which kind of bleeding it is? How to know the difference

Hello Anon

Thank you for writing!

Blood is blood, you can't tell the difference.

Since EC is up to 95% effective, it's far more likely that this is withdrawal bleeding. A test is accurate 14+ days after taking EC.
Best,
