Brief Answer:
DO ONE HOME PREGNANCY TEST AT FIRST.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for posting your query.

I-PILL gives more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy if taken within first 24 hrs. Here, chance of pregnancy is quite LOW but it needs to be confirmed.

In this case, I suggest her to undergo one home pregnancy test at the earliest as she DIDN'T get her regular period for more than 2 months (after 12th June). Pregnancy kit is available in all medical store. Next management can be done only after the test result.

Hope, it helps for your information. All the best and good luck.

Regards,
Dr S Patra

Brief Answer:
RARE CHANCE OF PREGNANCY. DO PREGNANCY TEST.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for providing right information.

If she got her period on 12th July, then there is RARE chance of pregnancy from unprotected sex on 18th July (SAFE PERIOD).

Additionally, she took I-PILL within first 2 hrs which will give more than 95% protection. However, it is the main cause for delayed period due to hormonal imbalance.

Here, I suggest her to undergo one home pregnancy test to clear doubt about pregnancy. Next treatment can be done according to test result as mentioned.

Hope, I have answered your query. If you don't have any other query, you can close the discussion.

All the best and good luck.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
