Decreased risk: Taking emergency contraception decreases the risk of unplanned pregnancy when used within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse. Always check a pregnancy test about 2 weeks after use to confirm that it worked. Condoms are very effective when used correctly so the emergency contraception was likely not necessary

Yes: With double protection, the chance that she would be pregnant is extremely slim. Congrats on using condoms, they protect against infection as well as pregnancy. With ECP, menses maybe irregular for a month or more.

No guarantee: Since this happened 20 days into menstrual cycle chances are likely you're safe, and condom and birth control meds help reduce chances of pregnancy to a few percent, but risk is not zero, even with all safeguards, time will tell
