Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your query, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.

1.First of all do not panic.

2. As you might be aware that in a woman with regular cycles, day 10 to 20 of the cycle is the most fertile period of the cycle. And you had episode of sex act beyond this period, just before the expected date of cycle. SOyou were in almost the safe period.

3.The emergency contraceptive pill is 95% effective if taken within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.
As she had taken it within stipulated time the chances of pregnancy are nil.
The pill causes hormonal imbalance leading to irregular bleeding spotting and the period might come early or late.

4. Please get proper sex counseling done, so as to avoid unwanted pregnancy and to avoid unnecessary medications.

I hope this answer was helpful to you!
Thank you and best regards!
