Hi again,

Thanks for the information.

As I said before the emergency pills do have side effects like nausea, vomiting, breast tenderness, fatigue, headache, abdominal pain, and menstrual changes which may comprise heavy bleeding for more than 3 days sometimes , spotting or a missed period too.Since you have got the home pregnancy tests negative , need not worry.Give it some time say a month or two to regain your normal menstruation.

Bloating and nausea are self limiting in a week or two after the ingestion of the tablet but you can speed the recovery by taking tab Prilosec OTC for a week before food early in the morning.

Hope I have answered your query. If you have any follow up queries I will be available to answer them.
