Welcome to HealthcareMagic,
If you had taken the ipill within 72 hours of sex then it will prevent you from getting pregnant. After taking the ipill many women experience bleeding for a couple of days. Your periods also get altered, you may get your periods earlier or delayed. Do not worry as this is expected and will get corrected in a couple of months. Hope that answers your question.
Regards, Dr.Imaad.
