Brief Answer:
no long term effects

Detailed Answer:
Hello XXXXXXX I understand your health concerns.
Ipill has progesterone and thus has no long term side effects since it is routinely present in body.
But use it only as an emergency contraceptive measure because it increases the chances of ectopic pregnancy (pregnancy in fallopion tube).
I hope I have answered your query but in case you have any questions I will be happy to help.
All the best.
