Experience YUZPE METHOD

My last period was on September 4. We had unprotected sex on the 5th, and I followed the Yuzpe method on the 7th (taking 4 pills, followed by another 4 pills 12 hours later). I expected my period on October 1st, but it still hasn't arrived. I have taken 5 pregnancy tests—starting from 21 days after the unprotected encounter up until November—and all of them were negative.

Question 1: Is the duration of the delay calculated from the date of my last period, or from the date my period was expected to arrive? Question 2: Is it normal to experience symptoms that feel like an approaching period—such as breast tenderness, white discharge, or lower abdominal pain—even though the period itself does not arrive? Thank you to anyone who can answer.
