Hallow Dear,

The intercourse on 27 September was very near to the expected menstruation; hence far away from the fertile window which is a week around the day of ovulation. Day of ovulation is 14 days prior to next expected period, which in her case would have been around middle of September. Therefore, the chances of pregnancy from this intercourse would be almost nil.

However, if her menses get delayed by a week or so, please get her overnight first morning urine sample tested for pregnancy; earlier these tests may report false negative results. This will confirm her pregnancy status.

If non-pregnant state is confirmed, she may take some Progestational pill like Deviry for 5 days with the advice of a Gynaecologist. Then within 4-7 days she should get withdrawal bleeding.

I hope this helps you today.
