    Female issue
    I took the morning after pill about 6 weeks ago, I still have not had a period. The day before I took the pill was the day of my last period. I have days I feel bloated and cramping like I'm on or going to start my period. Did the pill mess my system up or I'm I pregnant?

    Being its been six weeks... you have to be beyond the 14 day late point. Have you taken a HPT yet to find out?

    Buy one today... take it when you wake up tomorrow morning... the first time you pee.

    The morning after pill isn't 100% effective... and the test should let you know if you are or not... enough time has passed you should have a reliable result, either way.

    The morning after pill can cause you to miss one or even two periods, ( plus many other side effects are possible)

    No, if you get negative in the morning, just wait a couple more week for your next period time and see if you get that period. This can be common when using that pill. But also, do a pregnancy test weekly, till then, since you are only about two week late, and some women do not test properly at 2 week late for period.

    Taking a test any time of the day but morning is a waste of a test... the hormone tested for is most concentrated (meaning easiest to detect) only after being in you overnight... meaning the FIRST time you pee... all others that day are much more dilute.

    No need to go to the doctor yet. You need to wait to see if your next period comes as expected. If not, then it might be time to see a doctor.

    Until then, treat yourself as if you are pregnant. Get plenty of rest, eat healthy and avoid toxic substances such as alcohol, tobacco, and/or drugs.
