Hello,
Emergency contraceptive pill has very high success rate, there are least chances of its failure when not taken within 24 hours of unprotected intercourse. Negative urinary test indicates absence of pregnancy till date. Delay in menses is possible through hormonal imbalance caused by the pill itself. Still wait for further 3 to 4 days for natural menses to come or else you can consult doctor later.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Purva Patel
