Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
You should understand that if there unprotected sex on first day of period then chances of pregnancy are almost nil hence emergency contraceptive pill was not required.
After 1 week if unprotected sex is there and took I pill again this causes withdrawal bleeding hence irregular bleeding and cycle.
As she has taken I pill twice chances of pregnancy are very less although theoretically possible but wait for next cycle and if period miss then take a urine pregnancy test if negative then there is no pregnancy.
Please use some regular contraceptive method like Oral contraceptive pills or barrier methods and not these pills as way of contraception.
They must be used in emergency and properly under supervision og Gynecologist.
Take care
Good Luck.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
There are no chances of having pregnancy as she took emergency pills in time and she got period as well.
But avoid this type of frequent use of i-pill as this is a hormonal pill and short time and frequent use might cause hormonal imbalance leading to problem for regular period.
Ok and bye.
