I had my period on the 4th of Oct n then on 17 Oct, I realised dark spotting. I was alarmed as I had just had sex twice a week ago, I took a pill after the 1st 1 but for the 2nd time he used the withdrawal method. On the 18th I was still bleeding and it's a dark color . Am I OK?

Hello Diidi

Thank you for writing.
If by you took a "pill" you mean an emergency birth control pill, then this bleeding is a side effect of that medication. Look up the company's website to learn more about the pill you took and how it works.
