With emergency contraception pills it instructs you to take it within 72 hour of unprotected sex, which is what you did.
Based on taking the medication correctly, it should be effective in preventing pregnancy. As for the changes in your menstrual cycle, that is to be expected because you have introduced a high dosage of hormones to your system. Irregular menstrual cycle is one of the top side effects.
