Hello dear
Understand your concern
Pregnancy chance is nil because
1. You have sex in the safe period of cycle (when you are already 1 day late)
2. Postinor help to prevent the pregnancy. Effectiveness is 95 %.

Your period may is delayed by the postinor 2 that contain progesterone nad prolong the second phase of the cycle.
Your period will be delayed by the 7-8 days.
If period will delay by the 12 days then consult the gynecologist to rule out the other causes.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet and do regular exercise
Hope this may help you
