Had Unprotected Sex, Took Pills, Hpt Negative, Getting Frequent Periods. What Can Be Done? Worry?

I took 3 ipills in one cycle due to unprotected sex thrice. Had my periods normally that month. In the next cycle, I took one ipill. This time I had periods in middle of my cycle( had periods on 10 march which was the usual date, and then again on 25th march, normal bleeding, lasted for 4 days.) After that i Again had my periods today, that is 12 april. I got pregnancy test done and it came negative. Is there anything I should worry about or do?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
You should not take emergency pill frequently.
There should be at-least two months gap between one pill and the other.
Frequent usage of emergency pill can lead to short term and long term side effects.

The intermenstrual bleeding you are having could be side effect of i pills.
Possibly that can subside soon.
Prefer some regular method of contraception to avoid these problems in future.
For more details you can ask me through: http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-sree-gouri-sr/63429
Take care.
