Hello and thank you for sharing your question.
First of all you need to know that taking EC on top of birth control pills is not good for your health. Both contain hormones that prevent pregnancy. If you are already on birth control pills and taking them as directed, you should not take emergency contraceptives as well.
A normal side effect of EC is an irregular period, this is why you are experiencing these symptoms not because you are pregnant.
You do not need to see a doctor. Your cycle will return to normal as long as you stop taking the EC and keep taking your birth control pills as instructed. The pills will be effective even if you have intercourse during your period.
