hello,
Intake of the after pill induces some side effects which include abnormal bleeding, abdominal pain, weight gain, fatigue and so on. The pill will be effective when taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. I advice you to take the opinion of a gynecologist after an examination as she may need medication. Good luck.
