Hi Anonymous,
Taking emergency contraception can alter your menstrual cycle a bit. However, you should stay on your birth control regardless of when you took next choice. Don't stop taking it unless directed by the doctor who prescribed it. Where are you getting your birth control from? It should be prescribed by a healthcare provider.

Good luck and let us know how you're doing.
