I had unprotected sex last month (9th September) and took the I pill within 24 hours. I got my period on time i.e. On September, 15th even after consuming pill but the cycle was shorter than the usual. This month my periods were due on 16/17 and I am 8 days late. I even took the home pregnancy test which was negative. Is it too early? Do I need to repeat the test again? Or is it due to pill. I am also facing mild headache occasionally. Kindly explain in detail. Thank you.

Hello- I pill is a hormonal pill which causes changes in body physiology hence can disturb menstrual cycle, can result in weight gain and also in headache. So nothing to worry, it will pass out in few days.
