Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
I read your query carefully.
As per details,
You took emergency contraceptive pill so withdrawal bleeding can be a side effect of that,if you have regular cycle previously.
It will stop itself no need of any medication if there is no pain and bleeding is normal in flow.
You can take simple painkiller in case of pain.
Now wait for your regular periods. If there will be any delay then I would suggest you to visit hospital.

Hope so it will be helpful.
You can write again in case of any query or follow up.
Wish you Good health.
Regards
I find this answer helpful
