Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome to HCM.
Thank you for the query.
Kindly clarify this confusion.
I think you meant to say "next period was on between 15-16th of april (not march) but occured on 21st april (not march)". Correct me if I'm wrong.
Variation with the menstruation after taking emergency pill is a known side effects. Period can be delayed or can occur early after pill.
In your case, period has delayed after pill. Do not worry. That was your monthly period and not implantation bleeding (as you might be thinking because of less amount of bleeding).
Also Emergency pills are highly effective if taken within 72 hrs after unprotected sex. You have taken it within 24hr which eliminates even the minute chances of pregnancy. I do not think you are pregnant now.
But I understand your concern. I would suggest you not to worry about it.
For your mental satisfaction you can get one urine pregnancy test.
Hope this helps.
Get back to me if you have further query.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
It is possible.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Welcome back again.
As I have mentioned, pill can cause variation with duration and also amount of bleeding in next months period.
I can assure you this once again.
Do not worry.
Get your UPT and if it is negative (which it will be) then you have nothing to worry about.
Hope this helps.

Brief Answer:
You can do it today itself.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
I'm glad I could help you.
If you think that this months bleeding was an implantation bleeding then at least 21 days should have been passed after conception.
This time is enough to detect HCG in urine pregnancy test.
So you can take it today itself.
There is no specific time in a day to take test. You can take it at any time during day.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
