Brief Answer:
Wait for upcoming period. No repeat dose.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

I think prescribed pill is CYCLOREG (if not wrong). It is low dose progesterone pill and NOT like I-Pill (high dose emergency contraceptive pill).

If your period is regular (28-30 days duration), then you probably did sex in SAFE time (last week of cycle) and chance of pregnancy is quite LOW. Additionally, you took 3 Cycloreg pills for 3 days after that.

If your monthly cycle is quite IRREGULAR, then SAFE time would not be predicted. In that case, you should await for 1 week for natural period as you have taken 3 pills already.

Do one home pregnancy test if your period doesn't start within one week of time. Review with test report (if done).

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Brief Answer:
Wait for period. Premenstrual symptoms.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for follow up query.

All above features are suggestive of Premenstrual Symptoms and it means you will get your period soon.

Combined oral contraceptive pills are best to control irregular period, abdominal cramp and heavy bleeding. However, those pills are also effective for the same to some extent and in case of occasional heavy bleeding.

Be well and take care. Good luck.
