HELLO THERE.

THANKS FOR WRITING.

IT IS POSSIBLE THAT YOU ARE PREGNANT.

YOU HAD REPEATED UNPROTECTED INTERCOURSE BUT TOOK I-PILL ONLY AFTER THE LAST ACT. THE SOONER THESE PILLS ARE TAKEN AFTER THE ACT THE SAFER IT IS. ALSO THE PILL ENSURES PROTECTION FOR THE ACT AFTER WHICH IT IS TAKEN AND NOT FOR ACTS DONE AFTER THEIR INTAKE.

ALSO CONTRACEPTIVE EFFICACY OF THE PILL DECREASES WITH MULTIPLE USE OF THE PILL.

YOU SHOULD DO A HOME URINE PREGNANCY TEST.

IF YOU COME NEGATIVE THEN IT IS POSSIBLE THAT I-PILL USE HAS DELAYED YOUR CYCLE AS THIS IS A COMMON SIDE EFFECT OF THE PILL. YOU NEED TO CONSULT A GYNECOLOGIST FOR THE APPROPRIATE MEDICATION TO INDUCE PERIODS.

IF YOU TURN POSITIVE THE THE REASON OF DELAY IS PREGNANCY.

TAKE CARE.
