Brief Answer:
Not related to I-pill.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The green coloration of urine is not due to taking I-pill. It can happen due to a urinary infection or due to something else that she would have eaten. Sometimes the artificial colors added in the food also cause such coloration. Just ask her to increase her fluid intake and in case the urine color returns to normal in a day or two then there is no need to worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.

Brief Answer:
Infection less likely.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
If the color has returned back to normal then it is not due to an infection. She can get a routine urine test done to rule out an infection. It is not worrisome.
Hope my answer is helpful.
Do accept my answer in case there are no further queries.
Regards.
