Why Do I Have Headaches And Spotting Despite Taking Ipill After Unprotected Sex?

Someone help me. I had unprotected sex, and i was sure about the sperms so i took iPill after 60hours of sex. And, i had sex before a day of my period. On 28th And the period was about to start at 29th. After the pill i had sex the next day but used a condom which was old about 5months ago. It was safe inside my money bag. But, today i guess i am spotting. Because after 28th i was having bad headaches and also my tummy was hurting. 3days i had to suffer with these things as in, i felt like vommitting i was weak. And, today i am not sure whether its my period or not. Everytime i wipe a tissue orangish thing and not that sticky but kinda gluey is coming out. Now i am bleeding. Am i pregnant?

Hi,

I-pills and related emergency contraceptive pills sometimes cause headache and vaginal spotting because of its hormonal actions.

Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself even without treatment.

You can take simple analgesics like Ibuprofen or Acetaminophen for headache. The bleeding will be mild and will settle in two or three days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
