What Are The Side Effects Of Emergency Contraceptive Pills?

Hi, I recently missed one pill and right away the next day I had cramps and started bleeding very heavily, unlike a normal period. I also had abdominal pain and cramps much worse then usual. The bleeding is still happening as Im still taking the pills and that was a week ago. Is this normal or is there something else that could be going on?
