Brief Answer:
The chances of pregnancy are very less.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Thanks for trusting HCM about your health care.

I can understand your concern here.

The chances of pregnancy are very low in her case as she had I-pill with in time.

Withdrawal bleeding is a side effect of I-pill and occur due to hormonal disturbance cause by I- pill( it contains high dodoses of hormone in it).

Sometimes it occurs and sometimes it will not occur but there is no relationship between I- pill effectiveness with withdrawal bleeding.

So do not take any stress and wait for her next menses.

And do not use I- pill so frequently otherwise it may cause menstrual irregularities.

Do safe sex in future.

Hope it is useful, feel free to discuss more.

Good luck.

Brief Answer:
7 days after her missed period date.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

You are most welcome.

You should wait for her next menses and for best results better to go for a home urine pregnancy test after 7 days of her missed period date.

You can do a home urine pregnancy test as early as 14 days after sex but the chances of false negative have always been there.

Hope it is useful.

Good luck.

Brief Answer:
It may be irregular.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

You are most welcome.

Yes, she may have irregular period for 2-3 cycles due to hormonal imbalance or may be she is having regular menses.( there is no need to worry about it ).

She should take green tea, a lot of water and fluids, balanced diet, some meditation to relieve stress.

So now relaxed and take care of her.

Good luck.
