How was your period after taking EllaOne morning after pill?

So my son is 14 months now. We're not planning to have the 2nd just now. We had an accident a few weeks ago, and we realized too late. Next day I went to get morning after pill, I got EllaOne. I was very scared because my ovulation was 2 days before the accident but the pharmacists lady said, don't worry it will work any way. I'm due for my period from today, but nothing yet. I had cramps some days but nothing else. I am freaking out at the moment, I made a test in the morning - it's negative. I know it can cause delay but I am still freaked out. Please let me know your experience with this pill. :(

Hi! I’m currently shitting my pants to as like you i took Ellaone 1 days before my ovulation and I’m now around a week late! Last done test 2-3 days ago and still showing negative! Took MAP in the 15th of September so I’m hoping it’s just the pill delaying it xx

@odey9621 oh bless, I know what you're going through. 😔 mine was late with 5 days, but it came, was normal and everything. I kept taking tests but it was always negative. I'm sure it's the pill for you too, if you were pregnant a week after your missed period the test would show it. With my first I tested on the day my period meant to come and it was positive straight away. Let me know how you get ot, I know it's sooo stressful
