Hello,

I can understand your concern. If you want to prevent pregnancy, you need to take contraceptive measures before sexual intercourse or within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse by taking an I pill.

I assume that you have not taken any contraceptive measures during the sexual intercourse of 25th & 26th. If your periods are expected on 14th of the month, then 25th & 26th are the days you might be ovulating and so chances of pregnancy stay high, too.

I would advise you to take a home pregnancy test as there are chances that you might be pregnant. If it comes positive, you can consult a gynecologist to discuss further options.

I would also like to note here that I pill is just for accidents and emergencies. Making it a routine contraceptive method is not advisable as it has severe side effects. Rather, you should switch to other conventional methods like condoms, birth control pills or IUD.

I hope this information helps you. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. Take care.

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
