Hello dear
I understand your concern
Do not worry
Chance of pregnancy is less.
You did sex in safe period of cycle (22nd and 16th both are safe period)
I pill also highly effective in preventing the pregnancy.
I pill contain high progesterone.
Little bit bleeding was a progesterone withdrawal bleeding.
I pill also cause delay in period by the 1-2 week as it cause prolongation of second phase of the cycle.
So dealyed period could be due to I pill.
Wait for the period
Meanwhile avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water, do regular exercise, use condoms in future to prevent the unwanted pregnancy.
Hope this may help you
