Hello dear
I understand your concern
Do not worry.
I pill contain high progesterone.
It is a breakthrough bleeding due to progesterone withdrawal effect.
It will goes off itself with in 2-4 days.
It is common side effect and occur in 50% user of I pill.
So it is just side effect of the I pill due to hormone imbalance.
Your next period can be delayed/earlier, excessive bleeding will occur.
No chance of the pregnancy as you did sex in safe period of the cycle.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.
Hope this may help you
