Hi,
Firstly, you were most likely in the safe period when you had the intercourse, if you have regular 28-30 day cycles. Thus, you did not need the emergency pill in the first place. Secondly, the emergency pill contains high doses of hormone and thus creates hormone disruption. This can lead to withdrawal bleeds and delayed natural cycles. Above all, vaginitis can also cause irregularity. Pregnancy can happen even with vaginitis, but, is not likely in your case. Please see a specialist for a proper evaluation. Take care.
