Hello,

Common side effects of emergency contraceptive pills are:

1) Nausea
2) May vomiting
3) Slight giddiness
4) Chances of irregular menses
5) Chance of heavy bleeding
6) Lower abdominal pain

But after unprotected sex, as a contraceptive you have to take emergency contraceptive pill. It can be taken within 5 days, but should be taken as early as possible. I will suggest you to consult with the gynaecologist for second opinion.

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

Regards,
Dr. Shyam B. Kale
