General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
i pill is an emergency contraceptive pill. After its intake within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse, it would cause breakthrough bleeding within 3 weeks and prevents unwanted or accidental pregnancy.
What has happened in your case is exactly the same. Your next periods should be expected by the same number of days (in a month time) as it was happening earlier, provided you do not use any other hormonal birth control measures.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
