hi.using a condom also has some failure rate. It is not 100% protective. It is a good barrier method. did you use i-pill a no. of times. It is meant for emergency only and once in a while,and not daily after unprotected intercourse. For that it is better to use combined pills which are quite safe (0.1 per 100 women users failure rate). Now. take a hpt or get a scan done and look for the cause of delayed periods.
Thanks.
