Hi,

Zitotec is used to terminate pregnancy under the supervision of a gynecologist. Since you have taken ipill on the same day of having an unprotected sex pregnancy seems to be unlikely.

The delayed period could be due to hormonal imbalance caused by the ipill. Wait for a couple of days if period does not start then get the home pregnancy test done and consult a gynecologist.

Remember it is quite dangerous to make an attempt to abort without consulting a gynecologist.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali
