What Could Cause Urine To Be Thick And Yellow In Color After Taking IPill Four Days Post Intercourse?

I got my periods on 8th of May to 12th of may. I had intercourse on 14th may and unfortunately the contraceptive didn t worked and there is Little amount of leakage. But i cleaned it with cloth immediately and also washed my cervix opening and vagina with soap. Later I ate papaya for 2 days. Today (18th of May) I took i pill in the morning but now afternoon my urine colour is thick yellow. What does it mean ? Is I pill working? Or am I pregnant?

Hi,

Dark and concentrated urine can be due to less water intake in warm days with excessive sweating. It is not related with action of I pill. I pill is an emergency contraceptive. It must be taken within 72 hours of unprotected sex, for desired action of avoiding pregnancy. Actually, you had unprotected sex on 8th day of periods. It is well before ovulation for a regular 28 to 30 days menstrual cycle.

In such a case you have no chance of conception and would get normal menses (likely to be 8-10 days delayed by the disturbance caused by iPills). But in case you have a shorter menstrual cycle OR you have irregular periods. The pills will not affect possible pregnancy and you have to terminate pregnancy for fear of fetal abnormality due to I pill intake.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
