The morning after pill produces hormones which prevent you from becoming pregnant in the first place. It doesn't abort a pregnancy. If the OP had become pregnant from this incident, the pill doesn't interfere with or damage the fetus.
It prevents implantation in the endometrium, not fertilisation. If egg and sperm fuse, a zygote has formed and it begins dividing until it forms a blastocyst of 70-100 cells. This is when it tries to attach to the uterine wall, but the wall says "screw you, kid. No room at the inn." because of the pill. The blastocyst dies.
Ok, blastocysts have no neurons, so they can't experience pain. I have no ethical qualms about killing them, but the bible gestapo would.
IIN to get incredibly depressed after taking the morning after pill?
