<s>[INST] hi, i am just curious, my partner and i have had protected  intercourse twice in the past 4/5 weeks.  after having a previous mishap months before and falling pregnant, i took the morning after pill as an extra precaution. A day or two after my period ended there has been brown discharge, not constantly just every so often a small amount. could you tell me why this is? [/INST] Hi, If the intake of the emergency pill was done within the stipulated time interval, chances of pregnancy are very less even if unprotected intercourse happens during the ovulation period. The spotting observed at present could be due to the pill as often menstrual disturbances are seen as after effects of emergency pill intake. As it contains excess hormone, it so disrupts the hormonal milieu that it takes some time for things to get back to normal. Hope you find this information useful. Take care. </s>
