Hello dear
Understand your concern.
Chance of being pregnant is very less as you did intercourse in safe period.
Chance of pregnancy is high in 5 days before and after your ovulation day (Ovulation: 14th day of cycle).

Also you had taken emergency contraceptive pills, if you had taken within 72 hour of sex, chance of pregnancy is only 5 %
B
Bleeding is due to pill as it cause withdraw bleeding.
It remain 4-7 days due to hormonal imbalance.

Also note other side effects:
It will remain for for 4-5 days
Nausea or vomiting
Dizziness
Fatigue
Headache
Breast tenderness
Bleeding between periods or heavier menstrual bleeding
Lower abdominal pain or cramps

So I think it is be side effect of pills.

Drink more water
Take proper rest
Take healthy diet with vitamin and iron supplements
Maintain pelvic hygiene
Use safer sex practice
Wear loose pure cotton loose garments


Hope this may help you.
Best regards

Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Chance of pregnancy is nil. As you took emergency contraceptive pill, the bleeding is due to withdrawal bleeding following the pill intake. It caused by change in hormone levels.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
