Light spotting after next choice. is this my period?

Maybe: It's hard to say without additional dates of your last period, etc. Sometimes emergency contraception can cause breakthrough bleeding as well. I would definitely still continue to use protection. Since you were using emergency contraception, maybe consider a regular form of birth control? Also condoms to prevent chlamydia and other stds? Good luck!
