Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking I-pill?

default
Posted on Tue, 11 Aug 2015
Question: Hi doctor,
Recently, I and my girlfriend had unprotected sex on the last day of her periods. However, as she started bleeding, we stopped but as a precautionary measure, she took an ipill within 12 hours. Now, it's almost a week and she has not got her periods. We did home pregnancy test twice using Prega News kit and in both the occasions, the results have been negative. Now, we want to know if the periods got delayed due to taking the Ipill on the last day of her period last time or could there be some other complication? Is there a possibility that she may miss her period for a month altogether and have it in the next cycle instead? Please advice.
