Hello Anonymous,
Welcome to EmpowHER and thank you for coming to us with your concern.
The bleeding you experienced is called breakthrough or withdrawal bleeding. It is bleeding between periods and is caused by taking an emergency contraceptive/

Please consult your gynecologist. I am concerned that a hormonal imbalance might exist because of taking two doses of the emergency contraceptive so close together and starting a new prescription of birth control pills.
