Hi there, I have understood your concern.
First of all do not panic.
As you might be aware that if emergency contraceptive pills are taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex act, then it helps to prevent pregnancy in most of the cases.
Withdrawal bleeding after such pills is a bit eratic. It can be early or late, and it can be Scanty or heavy.
Please wait for her expected date of the cycle. If she happens to cross her dates, then please get morning's first sample of the urine tested for pregnancy. In case of doubt blood beta HCG test and USG will be of help.
If she gets her periods by that date , you need not worry at all.
As on now her stomach upset cam ne due to high dog progesterone hormone in the pills. Please seek prescription support from your treating doctor for getting anti emetics and antacids.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
