What Causes Prolonged Brown Vaginal Spotting After Taking Plan-B?
okay so I took plan b on the 25th of last month which was the end of my period.. a week after I took it.. I started to noticed brown spotting and ever since then it has not stopped.. almost been as month.. all pregancy tests so negative! when will this stop??
Sometimes the uterus keep shedding its mucosa in minute quantities with some of the hormonal medications like the one you are taking. So there will appearance of red or brown spots. It takes a little time to stop these from happening and will occur when your hormone levels normalises to optimum levels. So don't be worried. Once your cycles regularise, these things also disappear.
