Hi,
Ipill is an
emergency contraceptive pill. After intake of pill, you may experience certain side effects such as nausea,
abdominal pain,
low back pain, heaviness in breasts and headache.
The pill would prevent pregnancy by causing
breakthrough bleeding like your periods within 5 to 10 days after the intake of the pill.
Since you got bleeding on the 8th day after the intake of the pill, it ensures that you haven't conceived.
Generally, side effects experienced would also subside following bleeding.
However, since these are hormonal preparations, you may experience certain side effects to continue for a certain amount of time, which needs to be managed by symptomatic treatment.
You can take an antispasmodic-analgesic tablet containing
Mefenamic Acid with Dicyclomine to overcome such symptoms. Gradually, by the next periods, you should be back to normal.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ashakiran S, General & Family Physician
