Hello dear
I understand your concern
You did not mentioned the which type of contraception was used by you.
Lets assume it is emergency contraceptive pill to prevent the unwanted pregnancy.
You also did not mention about the normal expected period date.
Period after the using pill (on 4th september) could be due to side effect of the pill.
Now period could be delayed due to hormonal imbalance caused by pill.
It contain high progesterone and cause prolongation of second phase of cycle.
It cause delayed by the period by 10-14 days.
So wait for the period to come, avoid stress, take healthy diet, do regular exercise, drink plenty of water.
If period will missed by more than 14 days then consult the gynecologist for detailed examination.
Period can be induced by high progesterone supplements.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
