Hi alena,
It's likely to be the effect of Aftera- it can sometimes cause 'withdrawal bleeding'. I wouldn't worry about it unless your next period is late (>7 days), in which case you should get a pregnancy test.

The pill contains levonorgestrel and it can sometimes cause the lining of the womb (endometrium) to shed- this is referred to as spotting or withdrawal bleeding.

You won't know unless your period is late (see above); and if it is then you should take a pregnancy test.

its very common to bleed for up to 14 days after taking emergency contraception its most likey normal and not a result of pregnancy
