Is It Safe To Take I Pill During Periods?

Hi, Is it safe to take I-pill (contraceptive pill) during periods. I had unsafe sex(without condom) on 1st day of period and today is 2nd day. If I take I-pill, will any complication arrive in future to conceive. I don t want any complication in future due to emergency contraceptive pill. Please suggest.

Hi there,
After going through your question, I am of the opinion that:
1) There is no need to take an I pill during periods.
2) Having sexual intercourse during periods does not lead to pregnancy and since I pill is used to prevent pregnancy, no point in taking it.
3) I pill does not have any effect on future fertility and can be occasionally used in emergencies.
4) However, in my opinion, it is always better to have protected intercourse if you do not want pregnancy and also it helps in preventing other sexually transmitted diseases.

Hope this was helpful.
Regards,
Dr Shikha shah
