The menstrual cycle is regulated by a precise balance of hormones. Each one plays a role and is secreted or released at a precise time.
An emergency contraceptive contains a high dose of synthetic or man made progestin. By taking the pill, you give your body an extra dose of one of the hormones, progesterone, that helps control your menstrual cycle.
Imbalance means an upset. A hormonal imbalance will upset your normal menstrual cycle. It does not cause permanent damage and will correct itself within a month.
