Brief Answer:
Not because of ipill
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
The sexual intercourse you have had was during your ovulation so you stand a high risk of pregnancy. ipill usually causes early bleeding in most individuals and then irregular periods for 2 subsequent periods.
There are chances that you might be pregnant. Here is what you should do
1. Do not attempt taking ipill again
2 please take a urine pregnancy test immediately , it is easily available in pharmacies
3. seek help from a gynaecologist for the delayed period
I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
