hi
Pl do blood pregnancy test known as beta hCG.
Its common for periods to get disturbed after taking emergency pills like unwanted 72.
If beta hCG is negative its good for wait for a wk and see if the periods come on their own or not.
if no periods still once more repeat beta hCG and inform.

Best wishes
