Hello
thanks for your query.
THe altered bleeding is a common side effect of the emergency contraceptive pill, as it is a hormonal pill.
The spotting also could be due to that.
For the genital itching, please see a gynecologist who would also advise regarding the spotting, as there are varied causes of genital itching such as fungal infection, sexually transmitted diseases, allergic reaction to condoms, gels etc.
take care.
