Hi,

Ipill is an emergency contraceptive. It has high dose of hormones which postpone ovulation & conception.

This causes a delay in periods Your periods are likely to be delayed by 10-15 days.

In case you did not have unprotected sex during postponed ovulation (likely to be postponed by 8-10 days. You would definitely get periods. Please don't worry.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
