Hi,
Emergency pill contains excess hormone enough to disturb the normal hormonal milieu of the body and this results in breakthrough bleeding and delayed cycles. If your cycle is delayed by more than two weeks, you should consult a specialist for a complete evaluation and further management. Taking the pill within the stipulated time interval protects from conception 99% of the time. Hope this helps. Take care.
