Hello dear
I understand your concern
I pill was taken with in 8 hour of sex.
It is highly effective in preventing the pregnancy in your case.
It has just 0-5% failure rate.
Withdrawal bleeding does not occur in all cases.
I pill can cause hormonal imbalance.
It can cause earlier period, delay in period by 1-2 week and heavy bleeding
So do not worry if period will delay by 1-2 week.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you
Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
