Brief Answer:
Do one home pregnancy test. Follow the rest.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

If you had taken I-PILL within first 24 hrs of unprotected sex, then you will get protection more than 95% against unwanted pregnancy.

You got period or withdrawal bleeding (due to effect of I-PILL) on 12th Feb. So, chance of your pregnancy is quite LOW.

Period may be delayed due to hormonal imbalance, weight change, anxiety or mental stress, irregular diet pattern, lack of proper sleep etc.

I suggest you to undergo one home pregnancy test to clear doubt about pregnancy. On NEGATIVE test, I suggest Norethisterone tab (like PRIMOLUT-N) for 5 days to induce period. Kindly, procure complete prescription from your local doctor.

Take healthy diet, control body weight, maintain genital hygiene and need proper sound sleep. It will help to induce period naturally.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Regards,
Dr S Patra

On NEGATIVE pregnancy test, you should take your doctor's prescribed medication REGESTRONE. It has the same composition.
