Hello doctor,
I had unprotected sex a week back and took an I-pill within 24 hours. He did not cum inside me but still, for protection, I took the pill. Five days later, the condom broke, although he did not cum inside me, I am not sure of how safe it is. Is there any chance of being pregnant? Should I take an Ipill again? Will my periods be early or delayed due to the pill? Please advise if I need to take an Ipill again and if it is safe.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
If you have taken Ipill after first intercourse activity and if it was taken properly, in proper dose and timings without vomiting, then actually ovulation or fertilization would have stopped already for this cycle. By rule, no need to take another pill if still, no bleeding is there after the previous pill. But if you are not satisfied with the above points then you can take another pill but it will further disturb cycle and will have a withdrawal bleed in coming 1 to 2 weeks. After withdrawal bleed, you will have next period, but not as previously scheduled because the body gets accommodated with externally induced hormones.
