Hi,
Thanks for the query.

The history you have given is not relevant at some points.
-Usually in case of regular periods, the ovulation will occur around the middle of the month.
And it will take around 2 weeks after intercourse to get the positive pregnancy test.
-Abdominal cramps may not be responsible for miscarriage but the miscarriage may be associated with them.
-Usually you have to take only one i pill and no need to take two pills.

The possible causes of fever etc are:
-Pelvic infection due to intercourse
-If you undergone any procedure for miscarriage, that can also lead to infection and fever.

You can prevent these by using regular contraceptive methods preferably barrier methods.
Hope I have answered your query. I will be available to answer your follow up queries. If you are satisfied with all my answer, please rate the answer after closing the discussion.
Take care.
