Hello misunderstand your concerned repetitive and prolong use of emergency contraceptive pills affect the pregnancy. It is due to hormonal dysfunction/imbalance that produce menstrual irregularity. But once your period will become normal and regular it does not affect the pregnancy. So crux is that, you can not use emergency contraceptive pills as regular contraception frequently (as you used 5-6 times in the 2 months) as it affect the future pregnancy. If you use in future by same manner then it affects the fertility. Please use emergency contraceptive pills once in a while in emergency situation. Advice you to use other barrier contraception like condoms instead of emergency contraceptive pills. So do not take more pill on regular bases. Hope this may help you Best regards
