Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The delayed period is likely due to hormonal variations associated with I-pill. However, it is best to take a home pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. Please also note that frequent use of I-pill which is considered an emergency contraception is not recommended. You need to resort to other methods like condoms (which have the added benefit of protection from sexually transmitted infections) or combine oral contraceptive pills.
