Had Protected Sex, Took Unwanted 72 Pill, Started Heavy Bleeding, Feel Light Headed And Nauseous. What Could This Be?

I had my periods on the 8th of this month which lasted 5 days and ended on the 12 . I had protected sex on the 15th but the condom broke and i went and rinsed out immediately and had an Unwanted 72 pill in the next 24 hours. Now i have started heavy bleeding again after on the 23rd of this month with is around 10 days after my period. Though I dont have any other early signs of pregnancy however on the 22nd night while i was working out i did feel light headed and nauseous. I am 27 and unmarried and dont intend of have a baby now. What could this be?

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The chances of pregnancy are very rare in your case because you had taken emergency pills after unprotected sex. The heavy bleeding and other symptoms may be because of pills only.
You should consult a gynaecologist for urine, blood test and ultrasonography to rule out pregnancy.
Good luck.
Take care.
