Dear member,
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
The pill has high dose progesterone.
So if you are not pregnant then it should induce a period.
I would recommend you to abstain from sex in this cycle. Also don't use any hormone medicine.
If after 4 weeks if you don't get periods then do a pregnancy test.
Thanks
