What Causes Brown Vaginal Discharge After Taking Plan B?

I had my last period on Feb. 20th-23rd. I had sex with my partner on Feb. 24th and he only pulled out. To be on the safe side, I took Plan B on Sunday Feb. 26th. Five days later, I had some brown discharge, which turned into a normal period. This lasted from March 3rd-March 6th. Now my question is, am I to expect my period a month from my first period or my period that came early on March 3rd? Thank you!

Hi, you will get your next period more or less on your next regular expected date and not from the periods induced by the emergency contraceptive pill.
Though your next 1-2 menstrual cycles might be a bit messed up due to the pills like irregular bleeding, delayed or early periods, but your cycles will again get regular from 2nd to 3rd month.

Hope this answers your question. Thank you.
