All questions answered one by one.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
Here are some answers for you, which will clarify matters -
1. No, you are not pregnant, since the pregnancy test is negative, and you had sex on the 6th day of your periods when you are less fertile plus a condom was used.
2. The bleeding was due to the pill, due to hormone withdrawal effect.
3. The unwanted 72 itself can cause menstrual delay. If you do not bleed within a week more, please consult a gynecologist for internal exam, pelvic ultrasound scan and hormonal tests. SOmetimes, stress, anxiety, weight changes, exercise, travelling etc can also cause menstrual delay.
4. The white discharge is normal. As long as there is no itching, pain, redness or foul smell in discharge, do not worry.
5. The test is accurate, since last time you had sex on the 17th of November.
There is no need to repeat it.
All the best

Brief Answer:
Delay due to the pill mostly.

Detailed Answer:
The reason for the delayed cycle is mostly the emergency contraceptive pill that you took.
As I said, wait for a week more before consulting a doctor for an ultrasound scan and hormonal tests.
There is no risk for a pregnancy as the test is accurate.
Take care.
