I and my girlfriend had an intercourse on 7 april and she took ipill on 8 april between 20-24 hours after intercourse. She was due on 10 april (regular cycles). Periods are delayed by a week now. Is there anything to worry about? How long should we wait to get her periods? Can she take home pregnancy test? Do we need to consult the doctor?
