Hi,
Thanks for writing in to hcm.
Since emergency contraceptive pills contain high doses of estrogen , it can lead to successive disturbances in menstruation.Therefore, you may experience a certain amount of delay in periods. Kindly wait upto 10 days from date of exxpected periods. If you still dont get your periods, kindly get a urine pregnancy test done.

Regards,
Dr.Riyanka
