Hello,
Thanks for sharing your health concern with us. When the emergency contraceptive pill is used within the stipulated time interval like you have done, it gives ample protection around 90-98 percent. So the chances of conception are very slim even if the intercourse happened during the fertile or ovulation phase of the cycle. However, as the pill contains high doses of hormone, the hormone milieu will be disturbed and can cause withdrawal bleeding and a delay in the next natural period by a week or two. The symptoms experienced are due to the hormone effect. Please get further help if she becomes overdue for her next period by ten days. Take care.
