What is the probability of pregnancy, and what other factors might cause a delayed period, after taking emergency contraception (i-pill) following unprotected intercourse in a patient who recently used menstrual-delaying medications?

Asked by Female, 34 · 14 days ago

It is very common to experience a delayed period after taking the i-pill (emergency contraception), especially since you recently used menstrual-delaying medications. Both of these treatments introduce hormones that can temporarily disrupt your natural cycle, making a delay quite normal. While the i-pill is highly effective at reducing the probability of pregnancy, it is not 100% guaranteed. Other factors like stress can also delay your period. To give you peace of mind, I recommend taking a simple home pregnancy test if your period is delayed by more than a week.
