Brief Answer:
EMERGENCY CONTRACEPTION

Detailed Answer:
hi
If your expected date was on 17th XXXXXXX you had intercourse on 25th may meaning that it was your 5th day of your periods if your cycles are regular of 27days.
In that case it was absolutely on safe days snd there was no need of i pill.Now the spotting could have been because of i pill.
I suggest you to wait for 5 to 7 days as there can be a delay because of i pill and stress.mean while you can do blood hcg hormone analysis after 2 days to know you are pregnant or not.
chances are very very less if your menses are regular.
Even if positive nothing to worry .If you don't want to continue consult a gynaecologist and she will help you with medicines.
Hope my answer helps you. Feel free to ask your doubts with more details. Regards
