Is it safe for a 50 year old to take I-pill?
Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Is the I-pill safe and efficient for a woman who will turn 50 years old in a couple of months? What are the expected as well as possible side effects? She had unprotected sex 48 hours before. She is not menopausal yet but has irregular periods. She has never consumed an emergency contraceptive pill before.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Consuming I-pill once is perfectly safe even in 50 years if not menopausal. The minor side effects are abdominal pain, slight water retention and delay of menstruation the in next cycle. Do not worry. She can take it before 72 hours has completed.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
