Pregnant or Paranoid?

I had sex on the third day of my period on the 10th July(started my period on the 8th) and on the very same day I took the morning after pill a few hours later. Today the 25 I'm having some pregnancy like symptoms like back pains, breast tenderness and light cramping. I don't know if its part of the side effects of the pill cause it also stated on the instruction manual on the box or I'm really pregnant, I feel its a bit early to take the test as I'm 2weeks into this. Can anyone please explain this further to me or I'm just being paranoid.

Hi there.  PMS symptoms can be a lot like pregnancy symptoms and taking the morning after pill is basically adding in hormones so our bodies react.  your symptoms are pretty normal for that.  Take care

You're being paranoid. 2 weeks you're not considered pregnant pregnant And I don't think you would feel symptoms around 2 weeks. Idk if that even made sense. And you took the pill. On time so you should be good.

I was saying you're just paranoid . I'm pretty sure that's all it is . The plan B pill usually makes your period come a week late .

So the symptoms that I'm getting could be that I am pregnant. I'm just not ready for a baby right now, as I'm preparing to go to university next year. I don't know what to do.

The person above who said you can't get pregnant on your period is 100% incorrect . There is a chance , but a low one . But I was the same way , I was paranoid even though I took plan B , but it worked ! I wasn't ready to be pregnant yet , and 4 months later I was , so here I am 37 weeks pregnant .

I do not believe that you're pregnant. If taken correctly before 72 hours after sex plan be is highly effective.
