Withdrawal bleeding looks like any other kind of bleeding.
It happens after birth control is stopped (when on the Pill, a period is really withdrawal bleeding when 21 active pills are taken and 7 inactive pills begin). It also happens after emergency birth control - usually 3-7 days after the EC is taken (if at all).
Your bleeding is due to taking emergency birth control and this generally indicates you are not pregnant. You need to read the paperwork that comes with the medication so you know more. Your next period may be 1-4 weeks after this bleeding. Please read the paperwork or contact the manufacturer's website to know more.
