Brief Answer:
do a urine pregnancy test

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, I understand your anxiety.
But by chance you did unprotected intercouse around her ovulation time only and then took unprotected intercouse.
This delay can be both due to pregnancy and the effect of ipill.
Do a urine pregnancy test and see the result.
In case positive then let me know but in case negative (more chances) then wait for at least a week for her periods.
Waiting for your response
Regards
Dr Manisha
