Brief Answer:
Side effect of contraceptive pill.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.

These are not at all signs of pregnancy.
Moreover after taking emergency contraception, the chances of pregnancy are almost nil.

The symptoms she has been experiencing occurs due to the consumption of emergency contraception only.

These side effects are transient and usually go away with in a few days.

Also I want to make you aware that your girl friend may have irregularities in proofs for next few cycles after the consumption of emergency contracptive pill.

So her next periods may get delayed making you anxious!!!

So, don't worry , chances of pregnancy in the case scenario described by you are almost nil.

I hope it helps you.
If you have any further query, please ask me.
