Hi,
Thanks for consulting us.
Emergency contraception pills or the morning after pills contain hormones, which effects your menstrual cycle. They should be used only incases of unexpected emergencies & not as regular contraceptives.
If these pills are taken in the second half of cycles & repeatedly ( as in your case) next period may be delayed. However, you must exclude pregnancy as a probable cause of this delay.
Best wishes.
