Please wait until your period starts again! D: I think your mistake was taking after ovulation after already doing nearly two weeks from Day 1 of the cycle.
Taking PM after ovulation is usually for the people who wait after menstruation ends before they take PM. One week of PM isn't enough for growth and some choose to wait after menses so the body can rid of all of the uterine lining with no trouble and respect natural hormone levels. But because they're adding estrogen after ovulation which is when progesterone naturally rises and estrogen naturally falls, the luteal phase may get extended and the cycle will be thrown off.
This is what delayed your period. You also may have overlapped PM onto when you were supposed to menstruate, suppressing your period completely and making you miss.
If you're using PM from Day 1, ovulation should be the end of PM usage for the month. If you wait until menstruation ends, let yourself ovulate, but you'll have to continue for a week after and know this will extend your luteal phase and delay your period.
