Detailed Answer:
Hi.Thanks for writing on XXXXXXX
I-pill has to be taken as soon as possible after unprotected sex.The sooner you take the more effective it is.Since you have taken it within 2 hr it is very effective(95% effective within 24 hrs) and prevents unplanned pregnancy.Further, pregnancy can be ruled out once you have your periods.
Good luck!
Hope I have give a satisfactory answer for your query.
