Taking an emergency contraceptive pill can cause hormonal changes that may lead to an early or irregular period, bloating, and stomach discomfort.

The bleeding you experienced a few days after taking the pill is likely a withdrawal bleed caused by the hormonal shift, which is normal. However, if your stomach appears visibly larger after a month, it is important to take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy, and consult a gynecologist for a proper evaluation.
