Yes there is high chance of getting pregnant if your cycle length is short

Better use I pill or barrier methods

Your oral contraceptive pill becomes effective from the second month of use. So you should cover unprotected sexual intercourse in the first month with an emergency contraceptive like i pill.

Yes there may be chances of getting pregnant depending upon the length of the cycle
For this medicine to act as a contraceptive it has to be taken from day one of the period
If you take it from day 6 contraceptive benefits starts from day 13
