Brief Answer:
Yes she should repeat the dose.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I can understand your concerns.
She should repeat the I-pill if she had unprotected sex again after taking the pill.
Because if you had sex after taking I-pill it will not protect you from pregnancy.
Hope found useful, feel free to discuss more information.
Good luck.

Brief Answer:
If no ejaculation than no need of I-pill.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Sir,
I-pill usually a safe drug but frequent use is not recommended because it may cause menstrual irregularities due to hormonal imbalance.
So if there was no ejaculation inside the vagina than there is no need of repeat the dose of I-pill.
If you have no further questions than please close the query and accept my answer if found useful.
Good luck.
