Brief Answer:
Pregnancy test advised

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
This can be due to the effect of ipill or that you are pregnant.
So first do a urine pregnancy test and see the result, in case negative then nothing to worry about and you will just need to take progesterone for withdrawal of periods.
Do pregnancy test and let me know the result.

Ya sure i am just thinking of doing pregnency test...my biggest confusion is that after having an ipill as per my period date i just had my period on 26th july...so is there any possiblity of pregnency after having period..

Brief Answer:
Very less chance of pregnancy

Detailed Answer:
Very less likely so most probably it is just a side effect of ipill which has resulted in deranged periods.
Just take a pregnancy test and in case negative there is nothing to worry.

hello ma'm...one more question arose in my mind that....during the month of august i had severe back ache due to carrying heavy bundle of books..so as prescribed by the doctor i took 'Zerodol TH4' tablet from 22nd aug to 26th aug...the date which i supposed to have period...so, my question is that is the pain killer tablet may be the cause of my missed period because as per my information i already had my period on 26th july after taking i pill..nd so i think i m aware of pregnant...but for my satisfaction i will be surely test it...

Brief Answer:
No relation with periods

Detailed Answer:
No zerodol has no effect on periods so don't worry about that at all.
Missed period is just because of ipill most likely but still it will be better to do urine pregnancy test to be double sure.
