I-Pill is an emergency contraceptive pill, which helps prevent unwanted pregnancy after forming unsafe. It works by delaying ovulation (egg release) in the body or reducing the possibility of getting sperm and eggs.
No, Emergency Contraceptive Pill has no permanent effect. It is made only for emergency and does not harm the fertility of the woman.
In this article, we will clear all doubts about I-Pill, its impact on fertility, and the safest ways to use it.
Emergency Contraceptive Pill contains Levonorgestrel (1.5 mg), a synthetic hormone that prevents pregnancy by:
📢 Emergency Contraceptive Pillis NOT an abortion pill. It only works before pregnancy occurs.
⏳ When to Take It?
👉 Best within 24 hours (95% effective)
👉 Up to 72 hours after unprotected sex (reduces effectiveness with time)
It only provides a temporary hormonal effect and does not damage reproductive organs.
📢 However, frequent use can cause hormonal imbalances, which may temporarily affect ovulation.
Although emergency contraceptive pill is safe for emergency use, it can cause short-term side effects like:
💢 Irregular periods (delayed or early)
🤕 Headache and nausea
⚖️ Weight fluctuations
😴 Fatigue and dizziness
🚽 Mild stomach discomfort
📌 These effects are temporary and do not affect long-term fertility
Women with the following conditions should not use I-Pill regularly:
📢 If you need regular contraception, switch to birth control pills, IUDs, or other safer methods

Hormone Dose | High | Low |
Frequency | Occasional use only | Daily use |

📢 Takeaway: If you are sexually active, use a daily contraceptive pill instead of relying on I-Pill frequently.
