Welcome to Healthcare Magic
I-pill is effective in preventing pregnancy if taken within 72 hours. You will have good chance of not being pregnant. There will be some mentrual disturbance in a few days like spotting, heavy flow, irregular cycle but they will become normal in 2-3 cycles. Also avoid taking Emergency contraceptive pill frequently like a normal contraceptive because it has lot of side effects like weight gain, breast tenderness, nausea, abdominal pain. Use condom which will prevent against STDs also.
