So I have taken unwanted-72 which is an emergency contraceptive pill contains levenogestral synthetic hormone in the month of September after that I got my periods in the month of October it was one day delayed from the expected date. In the month of November and December I got it early from the expected date. But in this month that is for January 2022 it is due my expected date has already been passed. I am just feeling mild cramps, bloating and some creamy discharge from past 6 days. I used to have regular cycle before taking the pill. Please someone say what's going on?

Yes, it can sometimes cause your menstrual cycle to be irregular for months after use. It is a huge dose of artificial hormone for your body to deal with.
Thank you for your reply. I was panicking alot. This issue will resolve on its own?
It should do, yes.
You are very welcome.
You can always try a natural product called Vitex to get things regular again. That helps a lot of women. Worth looking up.
Does it has any side effect? Because I really don't want to put any further pressure on my body
