A member asked:

If i just finished my period and took the morning after pill and got my period again, does that mean i got pregnant and now i'm expelling the embryo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Unlikely: unless a positive pregnancy test. Most typically the morning after pill (progestin), does not cause expulsion of a pregnancy, more likely it prevents ovulation or prevents sperm from fertilizing an egg.
