Hi,
According to your cycles, your intercourse took place in the fertile period. Since you had protection and also the after pill, you need not worry. It is common for cycle disturbances to occur after using the pill as it contains high doses of hormone. The other side effects are also perhaps related to the drug. Anyway, you should see your doctor and get advice. Take care.
