A delayed period after emergency contraception is common, since the pill taken twice close together can shift your cycle by a week or more. But a negative test with your period still not here, along with cramps and today's brief shoulder pain, means a doctor needs to rule out a miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy before this is put down to the pill alone.
Next Steps
Repeat a urine
pregnancy test now with your first morning urine, since an early test can still come back negative. Please see a gynaecologist this week for an examination and, if needed, a scan or blood test to confirm where things stand.
Health Tips
Go to a hospital the same day if the shoulder pain comes back, you feel faint or dizzy, or you get heavy bleeding or pain that keeps getting worse.
