Hi thanks for posting on HCM.
The emergency pill may cause an altered period as a side-effect: it maybe earlier or later and also heavier or lighter than usual.
The swollen breasts, cramps are all related to hormonal changes and maybe pre-menstrual.
The best time to check for a pregnancy is 4-5 days (maybe earlier for some) after you have missed your period date, preferably with a morning sample of urine.
If you have any doubts do an ultrasound in about 1-2 weeks.
Do not worry. Hope I have answered your query.
Take care.
