Taken Next Choice After Intercourse. Have Nausea, Weight Loss, No Appetite, No Bleeding. Pregnant?
I took the next choice emergency contraceptive 6 days ago, 30 hours post intercourse. Most literature says side effects should go away in 1-2 days. I am still having nausea , especially at night 6 days later to the point I can t eat and have lost weight. I have not had any bleeding yet. I am extremely stressed out, could this be part of the problem, is this a sign of pregnancy possibly????

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
Sometimes side effect of next choice emergency contraceptive can last longer than 1-2 days. Regarding pregnancy, whether you have missed period? If yes, you can do one beta HCG to rule out pregnancy. If not missed period, don't worry, pregnancy won't cause symptoms so early. For symptomatic relief you can take antiemitics in consultation with your doctor.
Wish you good health.
Regards.
