A member asked:
Used morning after pill, 6 days later got my period but not much started red blood and gotten brown. is it my period for this cycle? why is it brown?

Can't say.: Brown coloration is usually due to old blood being cleaned from the uterus. 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.
