Welcome to Healthcare Magic
Your period may get delayed by 5-7 days due to drug effect on hormones. You may experience heavy bleeding and irregular cycles for 2-3 cycles. There are lot of side effects. Better to use condom next time and avoid these medicines unnecessarily.

hi,Pooja,thanks for query.As you have taken tablets in time there is no need to worry.Apart from this timing of sex,means on which you had sex also plays a role in chances of you being pregnant.Ideally you should have bleeding by now,still as the test is negative wait for couple more days and then if it does not come,visit a doctor for tablets which can induce bleeding.
wishing you good health.
