Why is my period delayed after taking emergency contraceptive pill?
6 days ago
I had unprotected sex on august 3rd. I took Norix after 4h. on August 10th I had my period for 2.5d. but since then I didn't have my period so on October 6th I took a test, it was negative. but October month is also passing by, and I still haven't had my period. also sometimes, I have extreme right sided (mostly) lower abdominal pain. it's like waves of sharp pain.

Delayed periods after taking an emergency contraceptive pill are common, as it can disrupt your menstrual cycle for one or more months.
However, the recurring sharp, wave-like pain on your lower right side is concerning and should not be ignored, this could indicate an ectopic pregnancy or another condition requiring prompt evaluation. Even with a negative pregnancy test, please consult a doctor as soon as possible for a proper examination and further testing.
