ask: Sex before periods, got the periods, am i pregnant?

Hi, I am a 21 year old female. I had sex 3 days before my periods. And then I had an emergency pill that very night. I also got my periods after 3 days. However, my next period is delayed by 2 weeks now. I am really worried, what are the chances that I'm pregnant?
Thanks

Dear Anon,

It's possible that taking the morning after pill has caused your period to be "late" since you got it 3 days after taking the pill. You can take a pregnancy test and if it is negative then this is a side effect of the medication and you will get your period soon.

Good luck,

Rosa
