Hello,

Thanks for your query.

Important aspects of your query are:
• 25 year old female
• Worry related to i pill.

I pill contain active ingredient Mifepristone. Mifepristone is a synthetic steroid compound. It is a progesterone receptor antagonist used in smaller doses as an emergency contraceptive.

It is not detectable in hormonal assays, routine blood screening tests, pregnancy tests and substance use screening tests. If you have some specific test related concern, you can write to me.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow ups.

Wish you good health.
Regards,
