Do not take another dose of an emergency contraceptive. You should never take more than one dose in a 30 day time period.
The heavy bleeding proved the pill worked to prevent pregnancy.
An ECP prevents pregnancy by preventing ovulation. Depending on where you were in your menstrual cycle on August 17 and 18, you may still have been protected on September 4.
If your next period is late by more than seven days, or you miss it, test for pregnancy and call your gynecologist.
