Brief Answer:
wait for one more week.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM.

I can understand your concerns.

You took ipill within 2 hours. In such cases, the drug is 95-98% effective.

But you have missed periods this time.


Ipill can cause irregularities of menses. It can cause early or late menses for 2-3 months.

In my opinion, you can wait for 1 more week for your periods.

If there are still no periods, then you can go for urine pregnancy test and consult your Gynecologist.

Hope this helps.

I wish you well.
Thanks.
