Hello Anonymous,
Welcome to EmpowHER. Thank your for reaching out to us with your question.
I am assuming you took an emergency contraceptive. Such pills prevent pregnancy by preventing ovulation. They are most effective if taken before you ovulate or in the middle of your menstrual cycle, and when taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex. For the pill to be effective you must take it within 72 hours following sex.
Some women do have side effects from taking the pill. Nausea/vomiting, abdominal pain, tiredness, dizziness, changes in vaginal bleeding, breast tenderness, diarrhea, or headache may occur.
What you really want is to have vaginal bleeding or your period within three weeks of taking the pill. The bleeding means the pill worked and you did not become pregnant.
