Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I had unprotected sex two days before my periods due date and consumed an I-pill within 24 hours. Now my period is five days late. I have tested using a home pregnancy kit and the result was negative. I am getting a clear vaginal discharge. What are the chances of me being pregnant? Should I repeat the test?
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
Two days before your periods is a safe period. There is no need of an I-pill (contraceptive pill) too. You can wait for normal periods to come. The delay is because of I-pill only.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
How long I should wait for my periods to come? Also, can I-pill messes up menstrual cycle? If I skip this month periods, will I get regular periods from next month?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
If you had unprotected sex two days before your periods, then you will never be pregnant even without I-pill. I-pill should not be taken frequently. It has to be used only in emergency. To the maximum, your periods will come within a week. I-pill will not skip one cycle. It may delay the periods for some time.
