Hi,
The emergency pill shouldnt be taken at any time but only during the fertile period otherwise the periods become irregular.If she is delayed by 15 days now,then she should definitely know if she's pregnant by now.If the report is negative,then just tell her to wait.Her cycles are irregular due to the hormones.Avoid stress.Next month,with a negative test if she doesnt get her periods then some tests will be required.
