Hi, last month on the last day of my period, I had sex, and the condom broke, so he cum inside me. I took an IPill within 12 hours, but after a week, some brown bleeding occurred which continued for four days. My menstrual cycle is 28 days. I am now three days late for my period and did a home pregnancy test, which was negative. Should I be worried?

Brown bleeding is a common side effect of emergency contraception (i pill). A 3 day delay in periods can be due to hormonal shifts from the pill. A negative test after 3 days delay is reassuring, but retest after 2 to 3 days for confirmation. No immediate need to worry unless periods are delayed beyond 10 to14 days. Keep tracking cycles and symptoms.

My last month periods were around 23rd and today is 25th. My periods are late. I had sex at the beginning of the month and on 12th July. I just did a pregnancy test, but it is negative. Can someone tell me why my periods are late or should I confirm with a doctor if I am pregnant or not?

After how many days of missing period should we check pregnancy? I missed my period yesterday and today I took the test and it was negative.

I am 10 days late for my period. I did a urine pregnancy test, a blood beta hCG test (less than 1.26), and an ultrasound, all came back negative. Could I still be pregnant? I am very worried. Also, my hemoglobin is low at 7 (normal 12 to 15). If my hemoglobin level improves in the future, could that make a pregnancy test turn positive?
