Ipill is 95% effective, ie the chances of getting pregnant if Ipill is taken within 24 hours of intercourse is less than 5%. It is safe to take Ipill repeatedly in the same cycle. Taking Ipill more than once do not reduce its effectiveness. However, if you need long-term contraception, Combined hormonal birth control pills will be a better choice.
Hope I was able to help you Please address further concerns/questions here Regards, Dr.Lekshmi
