Hello
Thanks for your query.
The i pill when taken within 24 hours is more than 95 % effective in preventing a pregnancy.
Also, the I pill can delay or prepone your normal periods by upto a week or more, sometimes, 10 days.
Hence, the scanty period could be due to this.
Please take a pregnancy test anyway just to be doubly sure.
ALso remember that the I pill is not a substitute for regular contraception.
All the best.
