What Could Delayed Periods And Large, Dark Nipples Indicate?

I took Plan b on May14 and again on the 22. My nipples are very large and dark and I feel like I could be developing pregnancy symptoms. The first pill was taken within 3 days of unprotected sex. The second pill was taken on the 4th day after unprotected sex. I usually start my period around this time but have 0 symptoms.

Hallow Dear,

If you have taken emergency contraceptive pill within 72 hours of the unprotected intercourse, it should give you protection against the pregnancy. These pills have good success rate.

Again you have repeated the pill. There is some confusion about the timing of the second pill; however, it does not matter. There was no necessity to take second pill.

These pills increase the hormonal levels in the body and thus the period may get delayed by few days. Even with one pill, the period can get delayed by few days; you have taken two pills. These two pills might have delayed your period. If you do not get the period even after 10 days, get your urine tested for pregnancy. It should come negative, if not you have got medicines to terminate the pregnancy.
