Brief Answer:
A side effect of I-pil.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Thanks for trusting us about your health care.

I can understand your concern here.

The bleeding can be due to a side effect of I-pill because it contains high dodoses of hormone in it( so it may cause hormonal imbalance).

Usually bleeding will be resolved in 2-3 days.

As in her case it is persistent for last 8 days, you should consult a Gynecologist and get her ultrasound scan done to rule out the cause( to be safer side).

Please revert back to me with your ultrasound report.

Hope it is usefu, feel free to discuss more question.

Brief Answer:
The chances of pregnancy are very low.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Nice to hear from you once again.

The chances of pregnancy are very less in her case as she had I-pill within time.

She can get her a home urine pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy( if you are so anxious).

Sorry dear I am not able to give my contact number but I am always here to help you and you can ask me as many questions as you have.

So do not take stress.

Good luck.

She is not pregrant. But bleeding is going on. Bleeding comes for 2-3 hours in a day. Is bleeding a problem for her. She is not going to doctor for checkup. Is that this bleeding will continue till her next periods. She normally has periods around 25-26 of every month. Should we wait for periods to come? It can be that this bleeding canstop after periods? Is this a serious problem? She is having pain also. This is happening from 10 days.

Brief Answer:
It is a side effect of I-pill.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Sorry for the long delay in my response.

This bleeding is a side effect of I-pill but usually bleeding is stop in 3-5 days.

As she had prolonged bleeding along with pain, she should consult a Gynecologist and get herself examined to rule out the cause.

I-pill causes hormonal imbalance due to high doses of hormone in it.

As you said she is not pregnant but ectopic is also rule out in her case.

Yes, bleeding may continue till her period date.

So please take her to the doctor for checkup.

Hope it is useful.
