Hi,
You had sex on 7th day of periods. It is supposed to be in safe zone in 30 day cycle. So you did not have chance to conceive that day. He also came out of vagina. Still you took emergency contraceptive which is known to postpone periods by 8-10 days. I would advice to wait till then Mostly you would get it by then.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
