A member asked:

My friend took the plan b pill 5 days ago now she's having brownish bleeding. what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Normal: Plan b changes the lining in the uterus, just like your body prior to a period. It is due to those changes, most likely, that she is spotting.
