Brief Answer:
Take Norethisterone pill. I-Pill is NOT best.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for writing to us.

I suggest you to take Norethisterone pill to delay or postpone your period. It should be taken twice daily 3 days prior to period due date and continued as long as you want to delay (max 2 week).

I-Pill is NOT the best option as you can't predict the date of withdrawal bleeding after taking it. So, it is NOT advisable.

You will get a withdrawal bleeding like period within 5 to 7 days after stopping Norethisterone pills. Kindly, procure complete prescription from your local doctor.

Hope, it helps for your information. Kindly, close the discussion if you don't have any other query.

Wish your good health and take care yourself.

Regards,
Dr Soumen

Brief Answer:
You are SAFE while taking pill to delay period.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for follow up query.

While you are taking Norethisterone pill to delay your period, you don't need any kind of emergency pill to prevent unwanted pregnancy as you are already SAFE due to an-ovulation.

Hope, it helps to clear your doubt. Kindly, close the discussion.

All the best and good luck.

Regards,
