Spotting

Unread post by Rainbowhooves »

I took Plan B in May.

I experienced heavy bleeding the following month.

My period ended two days ago but today I am spotting what seems to be old blood. I've had cramps and headaches.

Is this STILL the plan b? It's thrown off my cycle and its hard even tracking it back. Any idea why im spotting again?

As we make clear in our direct services menu, one of the things we lack the ability to do is to tell someone what's happening with their uterus. We simply lack that power. :)

It's not unusual after periods, however, for people to have some brown spotting. Perhaps it's never happened for you before, but it is common.
