Hi,
When was your last menstrual period? Are your menstrual cycles regular?
If you have regular cycles of 26-30days, then the first week and the last 10 days of your menstrual cycle are safe. If you have had unprotected sex during this period it does not result in pregnancy. So there is no need to take I PILL.

Please note that the fluid released before ejaculation also contains sperms and can cause pregnancy. So even though your boyfriend did not ejaculate into your vagina there is a possibility of pregnancy if you have had sex on days other than safe period. You have done the right thing by taking
I PILL. The earlier after sex you take the I PILL more effective it is. It is 95% effective if taken within 24 hours.
There is a small possibility of method failure. So if your period is delayed for more than a week get a pregnancy test done.
I hope I have answered to your satisfaction.
