Brief Answer:
Need more information.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I have gone through your history and understand your concern.
I- pill is a safe drug but frequent use is not advisable because it may cause menstrual irregularities due to high dose of hormone in it.
But before giving my opinion I would like to ask you why you want to take 2 tablets of I-pill within 72 hrs.
Can you please give more details?
(I-pill one tablet contain 1.5 mg levonorgesterol).
Hope to hear from you soon.
Good luck.
Regards
