Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Your partner took i pill on 23rd July after having sex 3rd time. But first time sex was on 3rd July. Even if you have not ejaculated inside, there are chances of pregnancy.
Anyway, since she has taken i pill after last episode of sex within 72 hours, it should act properly.
If she doesn't get periods within 3 weeks, from the day of taking emergency contraceptive pill, you need to seek medical attention immediately.
Get her urine tested for pregnancy and seek help from Gynecologist, if the period is delayed beyond 3 weeks.
All the best.
