Why is my period delayed after taking emergency contraception?

1 week ago

I had unprotected sex on August 3rd. I took Norix that day. On August 10th I had my period for 2.5 days. It's October month and I still didn't get my period. so I took a test on October 6th and fortunately it was negative. but October month is also passing by and I still haven't got my period

Emergency contraceptive pills can significantly disrupt your menstrual cycle, causing delayed, irregular, or missed periods for one or more cycles.Since your pregnancy test is negative, the most likely cause is hormonal disruption from the prescribed medication.

However, if your period continues to be absent, it is advisable to consult a gynecologist to rule out any underlying hormonal imbalances or other causes.
