Brief Answer:
Slight chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Unprotected intercourse can lead to pregnancy. Oral contraceptive has no contraceptive effect once the withdrawal bleeding occurs.
If the periods are delayed, it can be due to pregnancy or due to stress.
I will suggest you to get a urine pregnancy test to confirm, and if negative, then you can safely wait for the periods.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Please do get back for further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards
Dr Deepti Verma
