What Causes Spotting After Taking Plan B Pills?

I took two plan b pills in under a weeks time. About a week and half later I had two days of very light spotting but haven t gotten my period yet. Although I still have at least 5 days before my period is considered missed... Is the spotting a good sign or bad?

Hello,

No, the spotting is not a bad sign. I do not think it is pregnancy. It is due to hormonal changes as you already took Plan B pills.

If still spotting next period, consult further with your gynecologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
