Hello ElviraM9,
You could wait one more week and then test. For the most accurate result, test in the morning. Use the urine when you first wake up and use the bathroom. Let me know what happens.

Hello ElviraM9,
Menstrual bleeding is a flow, that you need to wear a tampon or pad. Spotting is just passing a few spots of blood.
An ECP can cause your flow to be lighter than normal.
I think you can stop worrying.

Hello ElviraM9,
Welcome to the EmpowHER community. I am glad you reached out to us with your concern.
The pain and light spotting as well as the delay in the start of your period could be side effects of the emergency contraceptive.
If you do not have your period within three weeks of taking the pill, test for pregnancy. Use the urine when you first wake up and use the bathroom. That is the way to know whether or not the pill worked to prevent pregnancy.
