Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern. There is nothing to be scared of.
i pill is an emergency contraceptive pill that needs to be taken as a single dose within 72 hours of unprotected intercourse.
The pill protects from pregnancy by causing withdrawal bleeding like periods within 3 weeks from the day of taking i pill.
Since you have taken 2 i pills, you don't need to seek medical advice and you won't have any symptoms. The symptoms which you may get include: feel slightly sick (nauseous), vomiting or have vaginal bleeding.
These symptoms will pass, and you don't need to seek medical advice until and unless these symptoms are severe.
Hence, relax and wait for your periods to happen.
Hope the information provided would be useful.
All the best.
