“Do I have my period or no after taking emergency contraception?”
My last period ended on 24th September but I had unprotected sex and had to take emergency contraception (postinor 2) on the 25th. I think my period began yesterday again because I was bleeding the whole day (not just spotting) and I am still bleeding today.

The medicine is designed to prevent implantation and can make you bleed. I would check a pregnancy test and see provider.

It sounds as though you are having irregular periods, you should have had another period if your last one was in September. Irregular periods are important to have evaluated as they can be a symptom of underlying hormonal conditions that warrant treatment, it would be best to make an appointment with your gynecologist.
