Is there any chance that i am pregnant?
Brief Answer:
There are 10% chances of pregnancy even after i-Pill.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Can you please let me know whether your periods is regular or not? If regular then you had unprotected intercourse around your ovulation period. However, as you took an i-Pill within 2 hrs, the effectiveness is 90%. Therefore, there is still a 10% chance of pregnancy. Kindly follow up with the detailed history.
As you have missed the period, I'd suggest you do a urine pregnancy test with early morning urine sample. Urine pregnancy test generally comes positive after 1 to 2 weeks after missed period. If it is negative then repeat after 15 days in case of a missed period. If possible, you can do an ultrasound to confirm.
I think this will clarify your concern. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Thank you.
