How To Treat Sore Breast,lower Back Pain And Hot Flashes After Taking I-pill?

Hi me and my bf had unprotected sex last month before my period and due to my work schedule I wasn t able to visit the clinic until the following Monday which was the fifth day afterwards after I took the pill I had sore breast, hot flashes and lower back pain then I got what I thought was my period which was extremely lighter then normal and brown. Usually my period last about 6or 7 days this last time it was about 4 to 5 pasty, dark brown, and some days wouldn t bleed at all then spot the next. I took a test (a cheap 99 cent store one) and it said negative. This month it s time for me to have my period again and I have no signs of it coming. No bloating, salt craving, mood swing, sharp pains...nothing. I m not pregnant right??

Hi,

It can commonly happen with emergency pills including I-pill.

It is basically due to hormonal action and will settle by itself.

As of now, drink plenty of water and you can take analgesics like Mefenamic Acid (Meftal) for symptomatic relief.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
