Ok well I had unprotected sex on 15th August and the next day within 24 hours I took the morning after pill. Exactly a week later on the 22nd August I started bleeding and I had this for 2-3 days. I normally have my period within the first week of a month ( Dont know exact dates sorry) and I had my normal period at the beginning of auguest before the unprotected sex. Its now the 15th September and I havnt had my period again yet... Im getting seriously concerned. Ive taken 6 pregnancy tests all of which have come out negative, but for the last week to week and a half ive been getting minor cramps and aches and pains in my legs (which i normally have before i come on) but still have had no period!! Someone please help with my situation... Im so stressed about it, I cant eat, I cant sleep, its all i think about! Help Help Help!

Hi Anonymous

If you go to the website for the emergency contraception or look at the inserts that come with it, you will see that some people get extra periods and some people have less. It affects your cycle for a couple of months, but it's a little different for everyone. Read all the information and if you are still concerned, I suggest you call the pharmacist where you bought it. They know more about medications than anyone else, and will be able to advise you better on your situation as far as whether you took the proper drug at the proper time and what to expect.

Good luck.

From what I know about taking the morning after pill... You count the last bleed as a normal period if it lasted between 2-3 days. When u bled 5 days after the pill was that your expected date of your normal period or was it early because of the morning after pill? With me I had a bleed 7 days after taking the morning after pill and this was 2 weeks before my normal period was due.. I then had to wait another month after the second bleed for my next period. All I know is the morning after pill definitely messes around with your cycle and if the pregnancy tests are negative then just feel reasurred. My period probably wouldnt of been late if I hadnt of stressed so much about it. Just relax and try not to think about it ( Yes I know its hard) but the more you worry the more it can delay your period!! Please let me know how everything goes :D x

Stressed out...

I have a question about the morning after pill--- I recently took the pills in late august, within 12 hours of having unprotected sex, and had my period in about 5 days... since then, I've had protected sex with my fiancee about 4 weeks later (3 weeks after the end of my last period)...My period still hasn't come for this month...its been about 6 weeks since my LMP (last menstrual period)...i've taken two urine preg test and a serum HCG test all of which have been negative...when should I be expected my period to come?
