I had intercourse on day 15 of my cycle and took an emergency contraceptive. i experienced light bleeding on day 24 of my cycle. its been 3 days and its still continuing. is it because of the pill ?

Pregnant ?'s: "Light bleeding" after "emergency contraception (a pill, essentially a birth control pill) can occur, but this does not always mean pregnancy has not occurred. Obtain a serum HCG test to be certain about pregnancy, as an ectopic pregnancy also has accompanied bleeding and needs immediate attention, so see your gyn physician for an exam if the test is positive.
