Hi, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Urine pregnancy test becomes positive after your periods are overdue and not just after sex. Morning after pill works only if taken within 72 hours, since it's 4-5 days since you had sex, it won't work.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
