Your period may be delayed as a side effect of taking an emergency contraceptive. Changes in the menstrual cycle, such as next period starts earlier or later than expected and a lighter or heavier than normal flow, are a reported side effect.
Now, if you had unprotected intercourse since your last period, pregnancy is possible. If you are late by at least one week, take a pregnancy test.
You can take an early response test but be sure to test in the morning using the first urine of the day.
