Hi,
Thanks for the query.
No need to worry.
The possibility of pregnancy is less in your case, as :
- You are on hormonal pills
-The possibility of ovulation is less during this period
-You took emergency pill
Emergency pill can alter the hormonal levels and can affect the menstrual cycle.
Possibly your brown discharge will turn into menstrual flow soon.
Take care.
