Hello and welcome to EmpowHer,
Since the bleeding your experienced was a side effect of the drug, you should experience your regular period at the usual time. However, there are instances when the drug also delays your regular period. The drug effects each period a little differently.
Do not be alarmed if you also experience side effects such as nausea, cramping, and tender breasts.
These are also side effects of the drug.
