Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The emergency contraceptive pill which you have taken after 1 hour of the unprotected sex will protect you from the pregnancy due to this intercourse. However, the pill does not prevent the pregnancy from the sex done after the pill. These pills are known to delay the periods by about few days to a week.

Moreover, your pregnancy test is negative. You may repeat the test after 4 days again to have reliable results. Please do not be under stress. You will get your menses after about a week's time (provided you did not have any sexual intercourse after taking the pill).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nishikant Shrotri
