Likely not: If you took the morning after pill within 3 days of unprotected sex. It is common to have irregular bleeding after the morning after pill. Remember that pill is for emergencies. You might want to consider what you want to do for birth control.

Decreases risk: The morning after pill only decreases your risk of getting pregnant after unprotected intercourse. It does not guarantee it. In 10 days a week pregnancy test taken at home would be reliable. Some irregular bleeding after emergency contraception is fairly common due to the hormonal disruption.
