Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Protected intercourse and taking I pill within24 hours of intercourse makes the chances of pregnancy almost nil.

Brief Answer:
I pill induces withdrawal bleeding
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, bleeding usually occurs within 7 days of taking I pill , and it is then sure that the pregnancy has not established.
However, if the bleeding has not occured, then you have to rule out pregnancy by doing a urine pregnancy test if your periods are delayed.

Mam,
Its been 2 daya since I took ipill. I see no signs of bleeding. I am much worried. The guy had put penis inside the vagina for 5-6 secs unprotected. After that he wore condom. Still any chances of pregnancy? Considering that it was 14th day of my cycle on which ovulation usually happens.
And, in how much time the pregnancy happens after sperm meets egg. I read 48 hours. Please help!

Brief Answer:
No need to worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, the I pill induces withdrawal bleeding within5-7 days of its intake.
So, I suggest you not to worry and wait for 4-5 days more.
Fertilization usually occurs within24 hours of ovulation, however since you have taken I pill, it will prevent any fertilization in 98-99% cases. Regards
