Brief Answer:
Pregnancy unlikely

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand the concerns.
The symptoms you are having are likely due to the pill.
Pregnancy is unlikely if you have taken I pill within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.
You can get a urine pregnancy test done 14-16 days after intercourse to rule out any pregnancy.
I will suggest you to get a urine pregnancy test done tomorrow morning to confirm the diagnosis.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Are these not symptom of pregnancy ??

Answered by Dr. Deepti Verma (8 hours later)

Brief Answer:
Non specific symptoms

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
These are non specific symptoms which are present in premenstrual phase and due to the effect of the pill, apart from pregnancy.
So, one cannot diagnose pregnancy only by these symptoms.
