A member asked:
Took an ipill after fully protected sex? is it harmful? is delaying and irregularity of periods harmful? any other side effects? please help
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not harmful: Emergency contraception will likely cause some breakthrough bleeding and a delay in ovulation and your next period. This will eventually resolve, but in the meantime, you absolutely need some form of birth control.
