Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare magic.
I am Dr Ramadevi Wani. I appreciate your concerns.
You need to take Ipill again to prevent pregnancy. The tablet you took on 1st will not work for this sex on 3rd.
The bleeding you had on 18th is because of the Ipill. Since you have taken Ipill several times in this cycle your period may be erratic for this month. It is difficult to predict when you will start the period. With the Ipill you will be using again you may start your periods within 10days.
Unless you both remind yourselves of the need to use condoms, it is difficult to control such episodes. Please understand that Ipill should not be used as contraception. Discuss with your doctor and use regular contraception like birth control pills as they are more effective than Ipill in preventing pregnancy.
I hope this is helpful.
If you have further concerns, I will be happy to answer.
Best wishes,
Dr Rama
