Hello,
If you take an emergency pill it works only for one occasion the latest, not for previous intercourses.
So there is a great probability of being pregnant. You can use a pregnancy home test at least 5 days of delayed period to confirm if you are pregnant or not. Use an every day contraception method for the other months if you are not pregnant.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
