Hello,

Withdrawal method has high failure rate (around 15 to 27%) and it depends on ovulation time. Another thing, morning after pill can cause late period for 1 to 2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance.

At this stage, I suggest to undergo one home pregnancy test to confirm pregnancy and consult with doctor after that.

Good luck.
