I don't think you could be pregnant due to the morning after pill, if you are unsure I would go see a doctor or take a hpt

Thank you so much,I'm just so scared... the fact that I don't even know when I ovulate scares me the most,I don't want a baby now at all,I just done know if having sex after 30days of when my period began could make me pregnant.

As long as you take the morning after pill you shouldn't get pregnant but to also make sure I would took a test in 3 weeks to see if you are or not, they say the morning after pill is very good but some people bodies are different and may not work like they do for others

There is no form of birth control that is 100% effective. That includes the morning after pill. Whenever there is penile insertion, whether protected or not, there is a risk of pregnancy.

You are now playing the waiting game and have to wait to see if your next period comes as expected.

But did I have sex at the right period not to get pregnant,I just want to know too,because I was expecting my period sometime this week also .

I don't know if you had sex during your ovulation period or not. There is no way for me to know that as I have not closely monitored your periods for 6 months to a year.

There is a good chance though, that you may be pregnant. The morning after pill is most effective exactly the morning after. Since you waited 3 days, you decreased it's effectiveness.

O wow so there is a good chance that I might be pregnant even if I had sex 30 days after my first period,how exactly is that possible, my period is very irregular as stated earlier, sometimes I don't even see it for 2months but for the last 3 months seem to av come every 36th -38th day, all I need to know is should I get a pregnancy test or should I still wait for my period to come.

Having an irregular period is even harder to determine ovulation.

If you test now, it would be too early and you may get a false negative. The most reliable of testing is to wait 2 weeks after your period is missed/due. Always make sure you test using first morning urine as the hcg hormone is more concentrated.
