Brief Answer:
Take emergency contraceptive pills

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Primolut doesn't acts as contraceptive pill and you need to take emergency contraception if you had unprotected sex.
Possibility of pregnancy becomes negligible if emergency contraceptive pills are taken in time. In case of delayed periods get urine pregnancy test.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Do get back to me for further queries.

When should I expect to get my periods, if I complete my course of 5days for primolut n on d 6th day take an emergency contraceptive pill? Since primolut should get me my period after 3 days while emergency pill Wil get me after 7days. Is the combination of both these pills affect my future pregnancy as I m also suffering from PCOD? Kindly guide me. Is I pill safe to be taken as an emergency contraceptive pill?
(My gynac had suggested me not to take an I pill. Are there any side effects if I take them back to back)

Brief Answer:
I pill is safe

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
The periods are likely to occur within7-10 days of taking the I pill.
There is no effect on future pregnancy by taking both the pills simultaneously.
I pill is a safe emergency contraceptive.
One can take it repeatedly.
