One week after the deed and a week after taking the emergency pill, I had the bleed. It starts from brown then it becomes red, it's not that light but it is lighter than my usual period. My period typically fill a tampon but during this bleeding, I never filled up a tampon for a day but the blood is obviously red and it lasted for 4 days. Can I still be pregnant and is that and indication that I am not?

Hello please help me,

Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern.

This is bleeding caused by taking an emergency contraceptive pill. It showed the pill was effective and you are not pregnant.

Regards,
Maryann
