Thanks for the answer doctor. Please suggest if consuming i-pill would be safe enough and will not cause any harm in pregnancy in future. Also, we would be glad to know any mean other than consuming pill if possible.
Brief Answer:
I-pill is safe.
Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
Consumption of I-pill once in a while is safe and does not affect the future pregnancies. It can cause mild nausea, intermittent spotting and a delay by few days in next period. There is no other safe way to avoid the unwanted conception now.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
