Late Period after Yuzpe Method?
Around 1.5 months ago my partner and I went raw. He pulled out (definitely came outside), and my calendar said I was not fertile that day. To be safe, I did the Yuzpe method (my first time) and took the pills within 12 hours.
A week later, I got a bleed that lasted 4-5 days. I figured this was the expected side effect/withdrawal bleed from the EC.
My actual period was supposed to arrive last Friday. I'm now 3 days late!
My worry: Did the withdrawal bleed mean the Yuzpe worked, or is it just a side effect that completely threw off my next cycle? Should I be panicking right now? Any similar experiences with Yuzpe messing up the following period? Thanks!
