Explain the problem clearly

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I think you should detail the events clearly from the start to give a better opinions.
Though the commonest effect of Ipill is bleeding it does not necessarily happen all the time. But its functions with 99% efficacy. If you had taken as emergency contraceptive pill please do not worry it should stand up to its role.

Let me know what is the problem.

Wait and watch

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

In this situation I advice you not to be scared or worried about pregnancy. As I said withdrawal bleeding is not mandatorily seen after Ipill. I suggest you couple to wait and watch and do not take any more pills.
The chances of pregnancy is very less in your case.
