Your doctor is absolutely correct. There was no need to take an emergency contraceptive pill because you are taking birth control pills, which protect you from becoming pregnant.
An emergency contraceptive contains the same synthetic or man-made hormone found in birth control pills, except at a much higher dose.
Essentially, you overdosed on hormones and really messed up the balance of hormones that regulate your menstrual cycle.
I am glad that you spoke with your doctor. Please follow her recommendations.
