Hi,
Thanks for the query.
As you took the emergency pill within time and as you got withdrawal bleeding after taking the pills, the possibility of pregnancy is less.
Emergency pill can lead to menstrual irregularity by altering the hormonal levels.
This is more common with repeated usage of emergency pills.

Periods can get delayed due to other causes like anemia, thyroid abnormalities, stress and strain etc.
So, you once go for urine test for pregnancy.
If the test comes negative, no need to worry.
Possibly you will get periods soon.
Take care.
