Hello,
You are completely protected just before the onset of a period as your ovulation falls two weeks prior to the onset of the period and therefore, you are totally safe. As such, you did not need the emergency pill. Since you have taken the pill, your period is bound to be late due to the hormone imbalance thus created. You can expect a withdrawal bleed about a week to ten days after the pill intake and if you do not see your next period even after two weeks, please contact a specialist for further help. Hope this helps.
