Hello ma'am and welcome.

I think what you need to know if the chances of pregnancy after taking unwanted pill within the given time frame, let me help you with this:
-If taken from 0-24 hours it provides 98% protection from conception
-If taken 24-48 hours after unprotected sexual intercourse it provides 85% protection from conception
-If taken 48-72 hours it provides 58% protection from conception

As per your information you have a 98-85% chance of protection. These figures are still good, but if your period is delayed then it would be wise to get a home pregnsncy test conducted.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
