Hello,

According to your LMP, you did unprotected sex on safe period and additionally, you took I-pill within first 24 hrs which gives more than 95% protection against unwanted pregnancy. Here, chance of pregnancy is quite low.

I-pill is the main cause for irregular spotting or bleeding due to hormonal imbalance and mental stress. It occurs due to withdrawal effect of the pill.

Chance of ectopic pregnancy has not been excluded by above features. For this, you have to undergo one TVS scan after undergoing one home pregnancy test or blood test for beta-hCG. However, it is quite unlike in your case.

Maintain genital hygiene and consult with your doctor after pregnancy test. Good luck and use regular contraception from next time.
