Hello ma'am and welcome.

Among various conditions that can cause a delaued period, pregnancy is one of the most common. Although, not the only cause. As you have mentioned consuming the ipill, this could have also caused a delay in your periods.

I would either way recommend a home pregnancy test using an early morning urine sample on the second day of a missed period or 2 weeks after the suspected date of conception to confirm/rule out pregnancy.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
