Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking A Morning After Pill?

I have taken the morning after pill post intercourse and new period cycle started after 8 days, lasted 3 days. After about 2 weeks then I had unprotected sex with the pull out method. I wasn t suspecting to get pregnant but now I have missed my period by 12 days( roughly 26 days from last intercourse). I have done the home pregnany test thrice that all came out negative. However could I be pregnant. How can I confirm. I have sudden pain and sensitivity in nipples. Acne breakout on face. Are these also related. also how can I stop unwanted pregnancy if it turns out positive.

Hello there. I have read through your question and as I can understand that you have missed your periods by 12 days. Urine pregnancy test takes up to 10 days after the missed period to come positive depending on the Hcg levels in the body. As it is already 12 day s and your upt came negative it is very less Likely that you are pregnant. However I would advise you to repeat it after 3 days if you don't get your periods. Most likely the delay is because of hormonal imbalance due to the morning after pill. If by any chance you are pregnant consult your gynaecologist for further advice . There are different procedure s available for medical termination of pregnancy. I hope that answers your question. If you have any further questions please feel free to write.
