my period for feb. came 3 days early throwing my cycle off. i had unprotected sex on march 11th and i know he came inside me. i got the morning after pill on the 12th and took it right away a little over 12hrs afterwards the second pill i forgot to take so i ended up taking it 24hrs after the 1st pill. i started bleeding today the 18th which is 5 days early. i was kinda surprised when i started bleeding normally i get very moody and my face tends to break out before my period and i've had no symptoms. so is this my period? and means im not pregnant

Hi Anon,

Welcome to EmpowHER.  Some of the side effects for the morning after pill are: changes in your next period, may be heavier or lighter, earlier or later.  You should take a home pregnancy test if you are still concerned.
