I am so scared, I dont want to go into detail but I had sex for the first time and got fooled into thinking the guy wore a condom, I know stupid of me. Until he messaged me the next day telling me to get the morning after pill because so and so.. I did about 24 hours after having sex. Exactly a week after taking that pill I have been feeling so sleep deprived, moody as hell and I got my period, and it's an unusual period! I also have THE WORST period pains. What is scaring me is that my period came about 13 or so days early. Is this bad? Will I be pregnant? What do I do? Please help me

Hi, Miss Maee.
Thanks for reaching out to us.
Emergency contraceptives are up to 95% effective when taken as prescribed within the first 24 hours, so the risk is very small. Side effects can include stomach aches, headaches, nausea and a general feeling of being unwell. Symptoms usually start 3-7 days after taking the medication and may or may not include bleeding or spotting. Not all women get symptoms. Some get many, or a few, or none. Some women may have changes in their period, a heavier or lighter next period, or a period that is early or late.
You need to be aware of what is going on during sex for your own health.
