Hi
If you have taken emergency contraception within 5 hrs of unprotected intercourse it should be very effective. Also if you had sex the day your periods finished you were probably not fertile at that time. thus chances of you being pregnant are slim. I would suggest to wait for a proper period. If your periods get delayed by 2 weeks of expected time then get a pregnancy test done. Let me know if you have any queries.
Thanks
