What Could Cause Vaginal Bleeding Three Days After Taking Plan-B Post Intercourse?

I’m a female who recently had unprotected sex and took the plan b pill. Around 3 days after, I started bleeding, at first light and now heavy like a period. My period isn’t due for at least two weeks. Is this a cause for concern or simply a symptom ?

Hi,

After taking plan B, bleeding within 8 days is normal. It can be spotting, indicating that the drug has left the body or profuse bleeding indicating earlier period.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
