Taking an emergency contraceptive pill can significantly disrupt your hormonal cycle, causing irregular periods, early bleeding, or delayed periods in the following months.
The two periods you experienced in August-September were likely a result of hormonal changes caused by the prescribed medication. A missed period in October could be due to continued hormonal imbalance, but pregnancy cannot be entirely ruled out.
It is advisable to take a home pregnancy test and consult a gynecologist for a proper evaluation.
Did home pregnancy test on 4th October and it was negative
