Hello dear
I understand your concern
Postinor 2 is 95 % effective in preventing the pregnancy.
So chance of the pregnancy is 1-5% in your case.
Your abdominal pain is due to side effect of the postinor 2.
Pregnancy test will give positive result 8-10 days after the missed period.
You have did test very early and this time pregnancy test will give false negative result because beta HCG value is less than 25 mIU/ml.
Take meftal spas for pain
Take rest
Take healthy diet and drink plenty of water

Postinor 2 also cause delay in the period by the 8-10 days.
So if period will delay by the 12-14 days, go for blood HCG test and or urine pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy.
Avoid stress as stress itself cause delay in the period
Hope this may help you
