Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for your question.
The bleeding is breakthrough or between periods bleeding caused by taking Nordette. Your next period might start on time, or earlier or later than expected. Changes in the menstrual cycle are a reported side effect of emergency contraceptives.
You should not depend on an ECP as a regular form of birth control. ECP contain high dose of a synthetic hormone that appears to prevent pregnancy by preventing ovulation. You might still be protected by the June 24 and 25 doses. The bleeding showed the pill worked and I doubt you would have conceived today.
Again, your next monthly period will be the proving factor.
