Hi I think you can repeat the 4 pills of birth control pill after 12 hours of 1st dose. It will act as emergency pill. So, it can prevent pregnancy. If your periods get delayed, you can do a urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy first. If negative, you can take some medicines like meprate or deviry for inducing periods. Get a thyroid profile and prolactin level and a ultrasound done to see uterus and ovaries to find out the cause of irregular periods. Hope it helps.
