Hallow Dear,
Ipill is an emergency or post coital contraceptive pill. It contains Levonorgestrel in high dosage as an active ingredient. Therefore, about a couple of days after the consumption, this pill does lead to some amount of withdrawal bleeding. You need not be worried about it. The spotting will stop within a couple of days.
Moreover, these pills also may delay the menses by few days to a week due to high dosage of Levonorgestrel. You need not get stressed out if your menses do not appear in time.
I hope this helps you to take away your stress.
