Dear Afnan omer,

Welcome to EmpowHer!

What you are most likely experiencing is because of the emergency contraception. Side effects may include nausea, lower abdominal pain, fatigue, headache, dizziness and breast tenderness. Some women may have changes in their period, a heavier or lighter next period, or a period that is early or late. It can mess with your cycle for a month or so in this way. Going forward, if you do not wish to get pregnant use protection and/or birth control. Below is some information I'd like to share.
