You need to take emergency contraceptive pill, it will have some side effects like weakness, fatigue, stomach disturbance, irregularities in next menstrual cycle. It is effective in preventing pregnancy.

5 days before periods are safe for sex. If not between these days you need to take I pill.

Yes, you can take I pill. You get periods earlier than expected, you can be assured that pregnancy has not taken place, but in case of delay in periods, it is best to take a pregnancy test one week over the expected date. This is largely a rare occurrence.
