Brief Answer:
Effect of I-pill. Wait one week to get period.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

Unprotected sex 4 days after period is extremely SAFE if your previous cycle was quite regular. Additionally, you took TWO I-Pill within those 3 days. In this case, your chance of pregnancy is quite LOW or NEGLIGIBLE.

I-pill can delay your period more than 1 to 2 weeks due to hormonal imbalance and associated mental stress. I suggest to await ONE week to get your period.

If you don't get your period within 1 week, you should contact with local doctor for medicine to induce period.

Hope, it helps for your information and practice safe sex in future. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.
