Great that you used Emergency Contraception (EC) after the condom broke, as this can help increase your chances of being protected from pregnancy.

EC can cause a change in your period cycle, and you may experience breakthrough bleeding. It sounds like you had breakthrough bleeding, since you just ended your period, however, read this article for more in-depth explanation: Emergency Contraception Update, 2010.

Also, here is some information about condom use that you and your boyfriend would want to read for future reference: Help! The Condom Broke During Sex: How to Prevent "Wardrobe Malfunctions".
