Hello,
I have gone through your query and understood the concern. The current menstrual disturbance you are experiencing is due to the intake of the emergency pill. Firstly, you had the intercourse during the safe period and you did not need the emergency pill at all. Please remember that ovulation occurs two weeks prior to the onset of the next period and this is the fertile period. this delay in the next natural period also is a side effect of the pill. Please see a specialist for further help if you become overdue by ten days. Hope this helps.
