Is my period just delayed?

Tagged as: Health, Teenage<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (22 October 2008) 4 Answers - (Newest, 26 October 2008)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Situation: my boyfriend and I came close to having sex. We weren't sure if any of his semen got near me, so I took the day after pill just to be safe.

Problem is that I took this pill on friday (friday was three days before my period) so, come monday (monday is approximately the day I was supposed to get my period) I didn't. I have a perfect cycle: my period comes ever 28 days. It never fails. My period was supposed to be here on monday, and it's almost thursday and I haven't gotten it.

Is there a possibility that taking the pill three days before getting my period could have delayed my period or something like that? help anybody?

i was in a similar situation and i took the pill right away. my period is pretty irregular, im always a few days late, but from what i was told the pill can delay your period by up to a week. and the stress of worrying about it made mine later. my advice, dont stress, get a pregnancy test to be sure, and everything will hopefully be alright.

good luck xoxo

hlskitten agony auntYou haven't said how soon after the incident you took the Levonelle? If it was within 3 days, you shouldn't need to worry. But apart from the cost, a pregnancy test wouldn't do any harm now to put your mind at rest.
