Hello dear
I understand your concern
Nordette is birth control pill.
To prevent pregnancy, it should be started from the first day of the period.
It will not protect against the pregnancy if one pill taken after the sexual intercourse.
Emergency contraceptive pill like I pill will help in prevent the pregnancy if taken within 72 hours of the sex.
So there is chance of the pregnancy if you had sex in the unsafe period of the cycle.
Now wait for the period to come.
If your period will delay by the 8-10 days from the normal expected period date then go for urine pregnancy tests and or blood HCG to confirm the pregnancy.
If you will be pregnant then still you can terminate the pregnancy by abortion pill under the supervision of the gynecologist.
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, do regular exercise and eat healthy diet.
Hope this may help you
