What Causes Migraine, Brown Mucus And Blood Discharge After Taking Plan-B?

my cycle ended last friday and my boyfriend and i had sex saturday and sunday after it when there was no blood. monday morning i took plan b. monday night i got a mild headache and tuesday the headache became a migrane along with dark brown in the mucus from down there. i wasn t worried since i was diagnosed with chronic headache syndrome mixed with migraines in high school but now i m actually bleeding red blood. i was wondering if it was smart for me to take plan b when i have a hormonal imbalance from losing 30 pounds in less than 3 months?

Hi,

Plan B contains levonorgestrel which is used to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex. These are given as 2 pills taken separately within 72 hours of unprotected sex. Side effects of Plan B are nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, fatigue, menstrual changes, runny nose, stuffy nose, brown mucus, headache, vaginal bleeding, dizziness, breast tenderness and enlargement, vaginal discharge, spotting or bleeding between periods, heavier menstrual bleeding, tiredness, diarrhoea, allergic reactions etc. If these side effects persist for long, then contact your doctor for medical help.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
