Brief Answer:
No chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Since you had sexual act on day 7 of the periods, the chances of pregnancy are nil as it is considered as safe period.
Moreover, pregnancy can occur only when there is entry of semen in the vagina.
You had touched your vulva after half an hour of the act, the precum on your hands would have dried and can no longer enter the vagina and cause pregnancy.
The bleeding you had after I pill is withdrawal bleeding due to the hormonal effect of the pill.
I suggest you not to worry as there are nil chances of pregnancy.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.

Brief Answer:
Withdrawal bleeding due to hormonal effect

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
Thewithdrawal bleeding after I pill occurs due to the effect of the hormone levonorgestrel on the uterine lining.
It is not related to the fact whether you had intercourse or not.
I pill has the side effect of delaying the next expected periods by2-3 weeks.
So, your periods can be a bit delayed.
Do not worry.
There are absolutely no chances of pregnancy.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Chance of pregnancy is there if pill taken 72 hours after intercourse
