Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I appreciate your concerns.

It is good that you took Ipill immediately. Ipill taken within 24 hours is 95% effective in preventing pregnancy. Ipill does not cause side effects in all users. So be happy that you do not have side effects.
Since you have used Ipill, pregnancy is extremely unlikely. As there is a small possibility of method failure, get pregnancy test done if you miss your period.

Please consult your doctor and start using regular contraceptive pills. They are more effective than Ipill in preventing pregnancy.
If you think you are at risk of STD's barrier contraceptives like condom should be used during sex.

I hope this is helpful.

If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
