If you had unprotected sex on 8 May and took an i-Pill on 9 May, the emergency contraceptive may have reduced the risk of pregnancy, but no method is 100% effective. It is also common for i-Pill to cause changes in the timing of the next menstrual period, including delays or earlier bleeding. Since your last period was on 30 April and you have not received your period by 31 May, it would be advisable to take a home pregnancy test if you have not already done so. If the test is negative but your period still does not occur, or if you have symptoms such as persistent abdominal pain or unusual bleeding, consult a gynaecologist for further evaluation. A healthcare professional can determine whether the delay is related to emergency contraception or to another cause and advise on any additional testing or management that may be needed.
