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

A period like bleed with the morning after pill is common. Most likely there is nothing to worry about. Yours was a bit early. Wait for your normal cycle to resume. If you get late for your period by more than 2 weeks then get a pregnancy test done to be more sure.

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