Question 2

I'm a bit confused and worried because my last period started on October 3rd and lasted for 5 days. I ended up having unprotected sex late on the 9th and then took an emergency contraception pill the following morning on the 10th. But then on the 15th, I started spotting and it turned into really heavy bleeding for a couple of days, plus I've been having this lower abdominal pain. I'm getting nervouscould I be pregnant despite taking the pill? And is there anything I could take to help with the bleeding? Id really appreciate your guidance on this.

How do miscarriages look?

Bleeding may start as light spotting, or it could be heavier and appear as a gush of blood. As the cervix dilates to empty, the bleeding becomes heavier. The heaviest bleeding is generally over within three to five hours from the time heavy bleeding begins.
