I'm a bit worried because my last menstrual period started on October 21st. On October 28th, my partner and I didn't have actual intercourse, just some rubbing of my vagina over his penis, and he's sure he didnt ejaculate. Just to be safe, I took the ipill on October 30th within 48 hours. Now, Ive been experiencing spotting since November 4th. It started with a few drops, then got heavier and red on the 5th, became even more on the 6th but was brown, and today, November 7th, the bleeding is red. Does this mean there's no chance of pregnancy?

Yes no need to worry you are not pregnant

How are ovarian fibroids treated?

The treatment plan for fibroids will depend on how the symptoms are affecting your daily life, and your body's ability to function normally, or whether you plan to have children. Your gynaecologist may adopt a watch-and-wait approach to see if medication can relieve your symptoms.If you are planning to conceive, medication may be prescribed to help shrink the fibroids or a procedure known as myomectomy may be recommended to remove them.
