Hello dear
Understand your concern
Yes I pill is 95 percent effective in preventing the pregnancy if took with in 24 hour after sexual intercourse.
Sometime withdrawal bleeding occur in the 50 percent women after 5-7 days lat for 2-3 days. (it is just like spotting and very light bleeding),
Your normal period may be delayed by 5-7 days because side effects of I pill as it cause prolongation of second phase of cycle.
If period will delay by 10-12 days then go for pregnancy test to confirm the pregnancy as it has a 5 percent failure rate.
If you do not want pregnancy then still you can terminate the intra pregnancy by using abortion pill after getting advice from gynecologist.
Hope this may help you]Best regards
