General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi, Thanks for the query. I understand your concern. You had 2 i pills in a week.. which is totally wrong.. i pill is meant for emergency contraception & is not to be taken on regular basis. i Pills contain high dose hormone which prevents pregnancy when take in 72 hours of unprotected sex., but also causes hormonal imbalance / irregularity in menses . The brown bleeding you have now is withdrawal of the hormones from body .. usually within 1 week of consumption. The itching you have suggests fungal infection ( due to un hygiene/ sexually transmitted ). It needs a gynecologist's consultation/vaginal swab testing & specific treatment given to both sex partners. Thanks.
