Brief Answer:
Very rare chances of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Intake of I pill within72 hours of unprotected intercourse prevents the pregnancy in 95-98% cases.
Pregnancy can occur from5 days prior to one day after ovulation, therefore ovulation on 17 th can lead to pregnancy.
There are extremely rare chances of pregnancy, because I pill has reduced the chances of pregnancy.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.

Brief Answer:
Do not worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi , LH surge is detected for upto 24 hours after ovulation.
I suggest you both not to panic, and wait for the periods to come.
If delayed then you can get a urine pregnancy test to confirm.
