Hello,
After taking emergency pill (Next Choice), you had gotten withdrawal bleeding. It is quite common and natural phenomena.
It will stop automatically within 3-5 days in most cases. But next cycle may be delayed 1-2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress.
In case of delayed period more than 1 wk, you need to undergo one home pregnancy test for confirmation. Maintain genital hygiene. Practice safe sex in future.
Good luck.
