Is Vaginal Spotting After Taking Pills Sign Of Pregnancy?

Hi, I tried skipping my period on august 20th & it didn t work. I soon got my period & had terrible cramps. me & my boyfriend had sex last Tuesday & we used a condom. the condom broke but once it broke he pulled out. he did not cum. I was concerned I would be pregnant so I took 2 pills in the mid package that night. I did the same thing when I woke up the next morning. I woke up this morning with spotting. I m terrified I m pregnant!! is it an early sign of pregnancy or is it just my hormones because I messed up my system! thank you so much for your time

Hi there, I have understood your concern. I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.

Please do not worry.

In my opinion, it is too early to expect and or suspect the pregnancy.
Your second suspect seems to be right.

The spotting that you are experiencing can be due to double pills that you have taken. I will suggest you to take emergency contraceptive pill like plan B within 72 hours of unprotected sex act.

Now, please wait for the expected date of the cycle. If at all you miss your periods, then please get morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy.

I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
