First of all I pill had to be taken within 72 hrs of unprotected sex
Earlier you take better is the protection offered
You have taken it late so chances of pregnancy could not be ruled out
Though test is negative now it is usually positive in 99 percent cases after 7 days of missed period
I pill contains harmones so it can affect the regular length of your cycle
Next Steps
repeat pregnancy test on 28 oct
if still negative then consult a doctor
