Hello sir and welcome.

As long as the ecp was taken, you are protected by around 98%, which is a good number and should successfully prevent conception. Even more as you have mentioned that you did not ejaculate. Ecp taken within 24 hours of unprotected sexual contact whether on the day of conception, before or after will work equally the same way.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
