Brief Answer:
CHANCE OF PREGNANCY IS QUITE LOW.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

1) You did unprotected sex close to your fertile days. However, you took I-PILL after 10 min. It will give more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy.

2) Most women get their withdrawal bleeding within 5 to 7 days after taking I-pill. However, it is NOT mandatory for effectiveness of the pill.

3) I suggest you to wait for next period date. If you don't get it by this time, you must undergo one home pregnancy test to clear doubt.

4) Don't be stressed yourself as it can delay your period. Take healthy diet, try to reduce tension, maintain genital hygiene and take adequate rest.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Good luck and practice safe sex with protection in future.

Regards,
Dr S Patra
