Will Taking Levonelle Cause Delay In Periods?

My name is Iphie. My period came on April 11, 2012 and ihad unprotected sex on the April 16, that is (6 days after). I took levonelle one step the following morning. Do you think it may delay my period or will it rather make my period come earlier. I usually have an average of 25 days menstrual cycle.

Hi, thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..
Levonelle causes menstrual irregularity like early bleeding, delayed periods and intermenstrual spotting.. It varies from person to person.. Next cycle will become regular.. If you dont get periods even after 1 week of expected period get a preg test. Levonelle reduces the chance of pregnancy by 89%. Hope I have answered your queries. Good day..
