Could I be pregnant if my periods were irregular in October and November, I missed my period in December, and I took the i-pill within 24 hours of having unprotected sex?

Asked by Female, 30 · 9 days ago

Taking the i-pill (levonorgestrel) within 24 hours of unprotected sex is highly effective at preventing pregnancy. However, because no method is 100% effective, and your periods were already irregular, there is still a small chance of pregnancy. Additionally, the i-pill itself contains hormones that can safely delay your period. To give yourself peace of mind, I gently recommend taking a home pregnancy test. If it is positive or if your period is delayed by more than a week, please consult a healthcare professional.
