Brief Answer:
No, I-Pill does not affect future pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for writing to us about it.

I-pill is emergency contraceptive pills used to prevent unwanted pregnancy.

Usually, withdrawal bleeding occurs 3-4 days after taking I-pill. (It is a side effect of I-pill because it contains high dosages of progesterone in it).

She starts her next menses within a month after taking I-pill. Sometimes it may occur early or may delay for a few days.

As such I-pill does not affect fertility or the probabilities of getting pregnant in the future.

But it does not imply that one should take I-pill frequently.

You should use regular method of contraception to prevent pregnancy in the future as they are much safer.

Hope I have answered your query if you have further questions I will be happy to assist you.

Good luck.
Regards
