Ovulation or pregnancy

Five days after taking postinor2, i experienced withdrawal bleeding. Not sure if I got my period since withdrawal bleeding continued into my expected period date. I am now experiencing clear egg white cervical mucus. Is this ovulation or a sign of pregnancy? Took a urine pregnancy test 25 days after the incident (that was 2 days ago)

Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
The most common side effect of emergency contraception is bleeding a few days later. This is not your regular period. Your next period may or may not also be disrupted from taking the drug.
Thicker vaginal discharge can signify a time of increased fertility, but does not necessarily mean you are ovulating.
As long as you took the drug correctly is will effectually prevent pregnancy. If you miss your next period, feel free to take a pregnancy test.
Below I have posted a link to a HER article about the basics of emergency contraception.

I hope that was helpful.
