I took the morning after pill 69hours after the incident and I experienced some of the side effects of the pill about 4hours after taking the pill and I thought everything was okay but then I got my periods for 3days which is shorter than I normally do coz they last for 5 days and the first day was normal but the last 2days I had a very light flow,could it be that the pill failed? Is it possible that i can b pregnant?

Hello noxolobm,
Welcome to the EmpowHER community. I am glad you reached out to us with your concern.
There is nothing to worry about. Changes in the menstrual cycle are one side effect of an emergency contraceptive. The next period can start earlier or later than expected. Flow can be lighter or heavier than normal.
Your menstrual cycle should return to normal next month. If not, or if you have further concerns, please speak with your gynecologist.
Regards,
