I took Postpill within 72 hours of having sex. Almost 2 weeks later I started spotting and my period is late. I feel like I’m pregnant. Could I be pregnant?

There are no guarantees that it will work, so pregnancy is possible. However, the emergency pill can also cause a delay in your period, bleeding/spotting, & pregnancy-like hormonal side effects.
