Hi,

You had sex and took I pill with in 12 hours of sex. I pill is highly effective in preventing pregnancy as you took with in 12 hours. It has 95-98% success rate in preventing pregnancy. But it has high chance of hormonal imbalance as pill contain high progesterone. Period can occur earlier, delayed by 1-2 week, intermenstrual bleeding, excessive bleeding can occur. So if your period will delay by more than 2 weeks then consult gynecologist. If you will be become pregnant then you can terminate pregnancy according to law of abortion in your country by meeting gynecologist. It can be terminated by abortion pill, and surgical method.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
