EC is only good if you take it within 72 hours.

How many of the pills have you taken? You should be safe if you've taken at least two-three weeks worth.

You should be ok then. You had been taking them long enough at that point. Be careful, and try to take the pills at the same time everyday. If you miss one or take antibiotics or anything, use a back up for a week or two.

Don't worry just yet about your period. Your body is adjusting to the pill and your cycle could be off for a while, nothing to worry about.
