Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The mild cramping that you are having could be due to the emergency contraceptive pill that you took. The chances of pregnancy are negligible as you took the pill within 14 hours of having sex. Please do not worry.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Regards,
