Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern.

Yes I pill can cause early bleeding & irregular periods. The first time you had bleeding(which is earlier than your normal period) must be breakthrough bleeding. This type of bleeding is lesser in amount than your normal period & normally occurs within 3 weeks of intake of emergency contraceptive pill like I-pill. There is nothing much to be concerned about it.
You could also have his next period delayed. Which is also common side effect of I-pill intake
Don't use I-pill too frequently. Use condom or regular contraceptive pill as method of contraception in future. Regular taking emergency contraceptive pills can cause problems like irregular periods, ovarian hyper-stimulation syndrome & even infertility.


For more queries consult a gynaecologist
Hope this information helps
