hiii,
Pregnancy is possible only,if unprotected sexual intercourse is done with ejaculation around ovulation time in regular period.
Sometimes precum or prostatic fluid,secreted prior to ejaculation,causes pregnancy in low percentage if it takes place inside vagina.
But in your case,chance of pregnancy is almost nil and you also took Postinor tab for safety.
Don't be much worried and wait for the next period. If it not comes,do a urine test for hcg after 1 wk to clear doubt of pregnancy.
Practice safe sex by using safe period/OCP/Condom etc to avoid unwanted pregnancy. Be well.

Hello
Thanks for your query.
You are right , as the pre ejaculatory fluid sometimes contains active sperm.
If you are not sure, about whether the seminal fluid entered the vagina, then yes, technically, chances of pregnancy are there.
Also Postinor ( emergency contraceptive pill ) is to be taken both together, within 24 hours of unprotected sex.
As you have already taken 2 tablets, do not take any more.
Please use protection in the future.
And wait for your period to be sure that you are indeed not pregnant.
take care.
