HI. .my girlfriend had taken an I pill within 4 hours .later on she also had taken little homeopathy medicine to get the periods sooner since she had planed vacation holidays ...she also ate papaya and all..The periods date was 30 of the month ...she usually gets on time. ..its two days late now. ..pls guide ..
I-pills are very effective especially if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse. So it would make the risk of pregnancy very very low.
I do not know the safety or efficacy of homeopathy or their ability to prepone the periods. Also they can interact with the I-pill and may affect its function. This would depend on which pill she has taken.
Papaya and all... will not help you to prevent pregnancy and there is no scientific evidence that they prevent pregnancy or cause an abortion. But I am sure you will here a lot of people vouch for its efficacy.
I-pill itself can delay the period and she needs to do a urine pregnancy test after 3 weeks of taking the I-pill to rule out pregnancy. Its best that she takes guidance from a doctor rather than take pills herself to regulate her periods.
Hope this helps. Regards.

How Effective Is I-pill In Preventing Pregnancy?
Hi there, Welcome to HCM, I-pills are very effective especially if taken within 72 hours of unprotected sexual intercourse. So it would make the risk of pregnancy very very low. I do not know the safety or efficacy of homeopathy or their ability to prepone the periods. Also they can interact with the I-pill and may affect its function. This would depend on which pill she has taken. Papaya and all... will not help you to prevent pregnancy and there is no scientific evidence that they prevent pregnancy or cause an abortion. But I am sure you will here a lot of people vouch for its efficacy. I-pill itself can delay the period and she needs to do a urine pregnancy test after 3 weeks of taking the I-pill to rule out pregnancy.
