My gf's regular period due date is 6th or 7th of every month. On 5th night I had unprotected sex with my girlfriend but I ejaculated outside well before I knew I would cumm. However, by the next morning, i.e. by 6th at around 9 AM, she took an Emergency Contraceptive pill (Unwanted 72 - a Levonorgestral 1.5 mg Tab). So today is 8th of May 2015 and she still has not got her periods and it is already 2 days overdue. Is there any chance she might get pregnant even after I ejaculated outside and also took an EC pill within 8 hours from the time we had sex? Please advice, I am really scared as she is 17 and I am 19 years... and we can't go to any doctor either.
Thanks
Sam

Wow you honestly sound like future Parents of the Year Award winners with that "we can't go to the doctor" statement. Screw the potential new life because we can't get found out. Bravo! For the sake of the potential new life I really hope she's not pregnant.
But seriously, what's the worry? You weren't worried when you said no to Mr. Condom so why be worried now?

Oliver2011... couldn't have said it better.
Want to play adult games... prepare to pay adult prices. And those prices can be very, very high and effect the rest of your natural lives.

And with a little compassion for the couple, since we don't know what the reason they can't go to the doctor. Might not be able to afford the visit or are in a small town where they might be gossip or the like.
The plan B is a massive dose of hormones that is meant to prevent ovulation and implantation. The problem is that it is a massive amount of hormones. It will mess around with her cycle. The next few months will have interesting periods, but given the time frame that you're talking about there is a good chance that she's not pregnant. She probably didn't need to take the Plan B but done is done.
So question answered I would like to take a few moments to talk about birthcontrol. The pull out method doesn't work. It will less the chances of becoming pregnant but not significantly, or enough to make it reliable. If you're not wanting to get pregnant, which is the main focus of the horizontal mambo, then you should investigate birth control. Condoms are easily accessible as well as hormonal birth control, though you might need a prescription for that one which would involve a doctor's visit. Being 17, she's a year away from total confidentiality with her doctor, if she's worried about someone finding out.
IT is time to start using the head on your shoulders, especially when it comes to sex. Sex is something that will change your life significantly.

Pregnancy will still be a possibility even with emergency birth control, however it is not likely. Just by taking it, her cycle can be off. Also, its not uncommon for periods to show up a few days earlier or later than expected. Give it some more time and see what happens. Be smart and have no further sex until an unplanned pregnancy wouldn't be an issue. At the very least use birth control consistently to at least lessen the chance.

ANY time there is penile insertion there is the risk of pregnancy. You can minimize the risks, but not eliminate them.
So yes it is possible she is pregnant. Unlikely, but possible. As noted, the emergency contraception can easily play havoc with her cycle. So being a couple of days late would not be unusual. She needs to wait one to 2 weeks to see if she gets it. And even then it could still be the contraceptive. But at that point she can start taking pregnancy tests.
However, I also agree with the other comments that you chose to play at being an adult so you know have to accept the consequences.

Is pregnancy possible, yes of course, there is plenty of sperm in the early fluids, to cause pregnancy, so merely "pulling out" does not stop it.
The "morning after pill" can cause her to have changes in her monthly cycle, in that it can cause additional bleeding, or can even cause her to miss one or two periods. It appears no one has read the warning labels that came with the pill.
There are many side effects to this medication.
Also, two days is not even really considered late, it is common to be a few days late sometimes.
And, it is not really possible to always have cycle start on the 4th or 5th of a month, some months have 28 days, some have 31 days, and cycles do not work like that.

As has already been said, any time you have sex, even when using birth control, even when using a Plan B emergency contraceptive, even if you pull out, there's always a chance of pregnancy. Every time you have sex. EVERY TIME!
If you're not ready to be a dad, and she's not ready to be a mom, then stop having sex until you're ready. There is no birth control on the market that's 100% effective, even if you use more than one!
Now you get to play the waiting game. The emergency contraceptive can throw off her period, read the pamphlet that came with the pills, it will tell you what can happen when using it.
If she hasn't gotten her period in 2 weeks, then it's time to take a pregnancy test. Make sure to use first morning urine, and follow the directions exactly. If that test is negative, wait for her next period. If she misses it, test again or get a blood test at the doctors office. Yes, the doctors office. If you're adults, and only adults should have sex, then you have to face the consequences of your actions and be adults about it, which means seeing her doctor.
