hello,
Following taking I-pill, a withdrawal bleeding occurs within 7 days. But continuous bleeding for more than 15-20 days is not a normal thing.
Need to investigate properly to rule out underlying pathology by doing one ultrasound scan, hormonal assay (LH/FSH, Blood estrogen/ Progesterone), thyroid profile etc.
Treatment depends upon underlying causative factor. Usually, hemostatic agents combined with progesterone pill is quite helpful. Consult with your doctor after completion of test reports.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet with iron supplements, maintain genital hygiene properly.
Be well.

Hi thanks for your question.
Unpredectable and heavy bleeding is side effects of I Pill.Since you are bleeding from last 20 days I would suggest you to consult a gynaecologist who may investigate you for excessive and prolonged bleeding and may advice you appropriate treatment.
Hope this answers your question
