Hi
Ipill is only to be used in case of emergency such as if regular contraception fails like a condom breaking. It causes hormonal imbalances resulting in a situation similar to what you've described.it will also cause irregular periods. It is not a guarantee of preventing pregnancy either.
So what I suggest is a blood test done at 3 weeks from the date of sex and share the report. It will clarify the presence of pregnancy or it's absence and we can proceef from there.
