What Causes Brownish Spotting, Dizziness And Nausea Post Unprotected Sex?
Hi, I had unprotected sex on the 7th day of my cycle, it was at the very end. I took a plan b pill about 38 hours later. It s been 5 days since I ve taken the pill and now I have some brownish blood discharge, dizziness, and nausea. My cycle is not due for another 13 days? Do you think I m experiencing implantation bleeding or side effects from the plan b pill?
Hello dear I think you have side effects of plan B pills. But you have to confirm pregnancy by urinary kit/Blood HCG level.
Plan B tablet is emergency contraceptive pill contain 1.5 levonogestrol. It inhibits the ovulation and prevents the pregnancy. 95 % effective if taken with in 72 hour of unprotected sexual intercourse.
So may be chance of pregnancy is 5 % You should go for Blood HCG or abdominal USg for better confirmation of pregnancy if period will not come.
Note common side effects of plan B pill: Delayed or irregular menstruation due to hormone imbalance. Bleeding between periods/spotting or heavier menstrual bleeding Nausea or vomiting Dizziness Fatigue Headache Breast tenderness Lower abdominal pain or cramps
It will disappear in 4-5 days. Hope this may help you. Best regards Dr. Sagar
