Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

If the emergency pill is taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse, then it is very effective in preventing pregnancy. No need to take any further medication.

If your next period is delayed, then rule out pregnancy by urine HCG card or blood HCG test, but the chance of delayed period and pregnancy very less in your case. Consult a gynecologist for the examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Parth Goswami
