Hi,
Thanks for the query.
As your periods are irregular, it is difficult to predict the period of ovulation.
But as you took the emergency pill the possibility of pregnancy is less.
Progesterone pills help in inducing withdrawal bleeding.
After talking progesterone pills, sometimes it may take around one week to get the withdrawal bleeding.
So you wait for 4 to 5 days, possibly you will get periods.
Take care.
