hi,
the emergency contraceptive pills can protect from pregnancy if taken within 72 hours of intercourse,
they are having side effects like menstrual irregularities,brown spotting, nausea etc, cramps may also be seen rarely,
they can prepone and postpone the periods depending on the time when they have taken,
if you took tablet in second half of the cycle they can postpone your periods,
you once check for pregnancy as the tablets are having 1% failure rate.
as frequent taking of pills can affect menstrual cycles, so better to shift to regular method of contraception.
take care
