well this is in response to the ipill where you were made to experience an early menses due to ipill. it sloughed off the endometrium completely thereby preventing any form of implantation and preparing for a fresh cycle. it is likely that the next periods may be delayed or also heavier, its a known side effect of morning after pill. practice barrier contraception for the next cycle.
