Risk is very low if no ejaculation occurred. You do not necessarily need iPill, but if you are worried and within 72 hrs, you can take it once. If period delay continues >7 days → do a pregnancy test.
Hello Darsh, thanks for sharing your concern. iPill works only if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex. For now, do a Urine Pregnancy Test. If negative, take Tab. Norethisterone 5mg twice a day × 5 days. You’ll get your periods after the 6th day.
Feel free to reach out.

Hello dear See as per history there are no chances of pregnancy since it requires physical contact of sperms with vagina along with ejaculation However if you are in doubt please check through pregnancy strip test beta HCG levels Hopefully your query got solved Regards
Having unprotected sex, even without ejaculation, can still carry a risk of pregnancy. This is because pre-ejaculate fluid (pre-cum) may contain sperm. If you are concerned about the possibility of pregnancy and are still within the 72-hour window after the sexual encounter, taking an emergency contraceptive pill like the i-pill can help reduce the risk. It’s important to follow the instructions provided with the medication for the proper dosage and timing. Since you mentioned that you’re due for your period but haven’t started yet, it might be worth considering that factors like stress, hormonal fluctuations, or even changes in your routine can affect your menstrual cycle. However, if your period doesn’t arrive after taking the emergency contraceptive or remains absent for some time, you may want to take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy. Keep in mind there are also sexually transmitted infections to think about when engaging in unprotected sex. Using condoms consistently is a healthier practice for preventing both STIs and unwanted pregnancies. If you notice any unusual symptoms or continue to have irregular periods, seeing a healthcare provider is advisable to rule out any underlying issues. Also, consider discussing ongoing contraceptive options that suit your lifestyle for future encounters.
