Brief Answer:
I pill might effect the period

Detailed Answer:

Hello dear,welcome to healthcare magic.

I understand your concern.

In my opinion i pill might effect the period making the bleeding lighter or heavier than usual and it also has an effect on timing of period making it to come early or late.

These all effects are due to high dose of progesterone hormone present in ipill.

Moreover your intercourse was done in safe period and it was not complete as semen was not in.

So the lighter bleeding might be the effect of ipill only and nothing to worry about that.

If you have no other symptoms like pain abdomen then you can be relaxed.

Hope this satisfies your query.

Feel free to discuss further

Brief Answer:
normal flow from next month

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, I got your query. I understand your concern.

In my opinion you might have normal flow from next month onwards. This cycle is affected because of intake of high dose of progesterone ie., I-pill which causes hormonal imbalance leading to alteration in bleeding pattern. So don't worry.

And progesterone hormone has side-effects like weight gain, it might lead to increase in weight. But it varies in different people.

Hope this satisfies your query.
Feel free to ask any more queries.
