Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for using Health care magic.
I read your query and understand your concerns.
The chances of pregnancy in your case is almost nil as the emergency contraceptives are effective in above 99% of cases.
Since sex happened even after use of contraceptive and this was your fertile period, considering your regular periods, I feel it will be better if you can pop another pill as it is still in the range of less than 72 hours from last intercourse.
I understand he did not ejaculate but we need to understand that precum contains enough sperm to impregnate.
I hope this helps you.
If you have more questions feel free to write back to me.
Thanks and regards.
