Hi,
Your chances of pregnancy are very very less in the current scenario. Emergency pills contain high doses of hormone and hence create hormonal disturbances. This is the mechanism by which they cause rapid protection. This, in addition, also causes menstrual disturbances. You may notice breakthrough bleeding and a delay in the natural cycle by a week or two. Please seek expert help if you are overdue by ten days. Restrict the use of pills to once or twice per year. Use regular form of contraception instead. Hope this helps.
