Hello
Thanks for your query.
Emergency contraceptive pills sometimes cause irregular bleeding, spotting etc , these would mostly not coincide with the date of your normal period.
As for your blood reports, it depends on which test you want to undertake, as the hormones in the emergency pill would interfere with some blood tests if done immediately after intake.
Take care.
