Took Nordette After Having Unprotected Sex. Reddish Spotting. Pregnant?

I had unprotected sex last May 9 and I took Nordette (as ECP) on May 10. Took pregnancy test (urine) last May 17 (got negative). Then Last May 19 there's a little reddish brown discharge on my pantyliner. My period is due on May 21. My average cycle is 30 days. My last period was April 21-27. I took another pregnancy test this morning (May 20) and it turned out negative though I still have the brownish discharge. Still want to be sure if I'm not pregnant. Please enlighten me. Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
The chances of pregnancy have always been there with unprotected sex.
In your case chances of pregnancy are very rare because you had emergency pills within time after unprotected sex. This brown discharge may be withdrawal bleeding of pills.
You should consult a gynaecologist for urine, blood test and ultrasoography to rule out the pregnancy.
Good luck.
Take care.
