Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking I Pill After Unprotected Sex?

My gf period was start on 18 Nov and it last for 5 days, on 23 nov we had unprotected sex but after 15 min she took emergency contraceptive ipill (72 hrs) again after 27 hrs we did unprotected sex as she has already taken ipill during last sex. Then after a week on 29 nov she also bleeded through spots for 2 days. As per her cycle phase of 28 days, her period must started by yesterday but it yet not started. Is there any chance of pregnancy.

Welcome to healthcaremagic,
ipill is an emergency contraceptive pill that is to be used after unprotected sex. It will not protect you if you have sex after taking a ipill. The possibility of your girl friend getting pregnant is present. The chances of her getting present are less in your case. I recommend that your GF should do a urine pregnancy test by which she will come to know her pregnancy status. Use a condom next time you have sex as the emergency pill have high hormone levels in them which have some side effects. i pill is to be used in emergency only.
Hope that answers you question.
Regards, Dr.Imaad.
