A member asked:
I took plan b and my period should have been on the 16th, instead i've been getting brown and some pink/red blood, is this considered my period?

Uncertain.: How heavy was the bleeding? Was it close to the time that you expected to menstruate? Potential side effects w emergency contraception include menstrual flow changes (spotting, bleeding, early or late period). Take pregnancy test ; notify dr if your period is 7 or > days late.
