What Causes Headache/brown Vaginal Discharge After Taking Plan-b Followed By Sex?
I had sex with my boyfriend and the condom broke. I took plan b within at least 24 hours. I experienced headaches, cramping, and kinda picky with food. Now I am noticing a brown discharge. It s fairly light. Is this side affects of the pill or pregnancy symptoms?

Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Spotting and bleeding, nausea and bloating is common after taking emergency contraceptive pills like plan B.
Spotting usually occurs within 7-10 days of its intake.
There is nothing to worry as these symptoms are normal after taking plan B tablets.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
