1. Lower back ache, headache,breast discomfort ,weight changes,edema are dose related ADR (adverse drug reaction) and are happening in you.

2. Since menstrual irregularities is als one of the ADR of drug thus if your periods does not come on due date, you may have to wait for a week.

3. Since I-pill has to be taken within 72 hours (8 hours in your history) thus the drug has worked and there is not need to get bothered.

4. To allay anxiety, you may do a repeat UPT (urine pregnancy test or take opinion of a Gynecologist)
