Not pregnant. It's because of the hormone imbalance caused by the emergency contraception itself

You didn't mention the date of her periods and the date of sexual intercourse.
However she should get her beta HCG level done and consult a Gynaecologist with the report.

Emergency contraceptive pill can cause delay in periods.
If pregnancy test is negative, there is nothing to worry. Just wait for the bleeding.
Repeat pregnancy test weekly in case there was sexually activity in later period also.

If the pregnancy test is negative the patient is not pregnant
Since the periods are delayed by more than 37 days she can take medicine to help get her periods
The reason for the delay could be the emergency pill in take
