Is Pregnancy Possible Despite Taking I-pill?

Posted on Fri, 18 Nov 2016

Question: Hi.. I had unprotected sex wid my husband on 22nd Oct.. I had I pill within 24 hours..my period date is 7th Nov.. Wen can I expect my period??.. Please help

Answered by Dr. Deepti Verma (12 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Either early or delayed periods

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I pill induces withdrawal bleeding within 7-10 days in most cases.
However, sometimes there is no withdrawal bleeding and the next expected period is delayed by 2-3 weeks.
So, either of the two is possibility.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
