Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
I pill is emergency contraception pill and it works by inhibition of implantation.It should be taken within 72 hours of sex.It has a success rate of 98% for women of average weight.
If you think you could be pregnant, have a pregnancy test three to four weeks after you use of ipill.
Shorter period doesn't mean you are pregnant. If you would be pregnant you would have a missed period.

Don't worry You would be fine
Hope your query is solved.
