Side effect of i pill

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
I pill is known to delay the next expected periods by2-3 weeks, due to its hormonal effect.
I will suggest you to get an urine pregnancy test to confirm, if negative, then there is nothing to worry.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
