Is this pregnancy or is the morning after pill delaying my period?

I had my last period in the first week of January (2nd to 4th). I had sexual intercourse in the second week of January (9th  - 14th) (using a condom). However, to be on the safe side, I took a morning after pill because I felt there may have been instances where the sex was unsafe. I got my period for 3 days (19th - 22nd January). I am not sure this is a proper period because it came one week earlier than expected. Is this because of the morning after pill.

Now, its time for my next period in February. It is late. Is this due to the morning after pill.

I took the home pregnancy test and it showed negative. I also took the blood test and it showed that I have zero HCG levels. Negative.

Does it mean I am pregnant? One month from having sex, ideally, if I am pregnant, will the blood test come positive?

I agree with Joy...the pill can really affect your cycle even for a couple months...

The morning after pill is a high dose of hormones. The bleeding was from the pill to flush out a fertilized egg if there was one. The morning after pill will mess up your cycle. Wait two more weeks. If you still don't have a period, contact your doctor and see what they want you to do!

Negative in blood and urine is a definite not pregnant.
