Hi,I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Prostinor 2 is emergency contraceptive pill. Usually there is a proper bleeding within7-10 days of its intake.
Since you only had spotting, it can be due to poor effect.
I would suggest you to get a urine pregnancy test done and if positive, then do consult an OBGYN specialist for further management.
If negative, it can be due to effect of prostinor, as it is known to delay the periods by 2-3 weeks.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
