Brief Answer:
ipill within 72 hours of intercourse.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.
I understand your concerns.
There are very minimal chances of pregnancy because you did not ejaculate inside vagina.
Secondly, sperms are destroyed fast when they come in contact with air.
But, if you are still apprehensive, she should take emergency contraceptive pills (ipill) within 72 hours of intercourse for best results.
Hope this helps.
Feel free to ask further.
Kindly close the discussion if you have no more queries and give your valuable feedback.
Take care.
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
take ipill immediately.
Detailed Answer:
In my opinion, this should not cause pregnancy.
She took the pills immediately (within 72 hours of sex). She has to take two pills once. There are no long term side effects.
The pills can cause irregular periods for 2-3 cycles.
Some short-term side are nausea, headache, pain in abdomen. If this happens, she can take ibuprofen tablets for pain relief.
Hope this answers your query satisfactorily.
Take care.
