Hello, and thank you for sharing your question.

Emergency contraceptives are generally 95% effective at preventing pregnancy.  So you should not be worried about that.  It may disrupt your period which is normal.  If you do not get a period however, you can always take a pregnancy test.

Hello,

Your period will return to normal next month in February.  

This month, expect it to be late, light, or you may even miss it.  But that is ok.
