Morning after: pills use an absurd amount of synthetic hormones and chemicals to knock you uterus into not getting pregnant, so your period is being prolonged for that reason. Extra hormones mean longer bleeding. You cannot get pregnant while you are bleeding. It doesn't work. Thanks for trusting in HealthTap.
