Brief Answer:
As below

Detailed Answer:
So, it is 9th March, so you are technically on day 31 of your cycle.
If your periods are regular, is your next period not due anytime soon ?
What is your cycle length ?
There is no need to take the I pill, as if you have regular periods, you cannot be ovulating on day 31, so there is no chance of pregnancy by having unprotected sex on 8th of March.
