Had Sex Prior Period. Took Emergency Pill After Unprotected Sex. Help?

Hi Doctor, I had sex 7days to my period. I took the emergency contraceptive pill immediately. My periods came at the normal date 6th July. They were quite normal and lasted for 5 days as usual. A week later i started having a brownish discharge that lasted for 2 weeks. I missed my periods for August: it s 7 days late. I had unprotected sex 4 days ago and i took the emergency pill again....Please advice.

Hi.
Thanks for choosing HCM.
You seem to have thought that emergency contraceptive pill is the panacea for avoiding pregnancy, which it is not in reality.
Please get your Urine pregnancy test done.
If positive seek medical help from your doctor.
