Those who take iPill must know that it can create havoc with the menstrual cycle. Excess bleeding following iPill is known, but it can be reduced by taking appropriate medicines. So please consult a gynecologist and get medicines.
Next Steps
IPill is meant for those who have infrequent sex and it is labelled as " Emergency Contraceptive Pill" so it is NOT for regular use. If a person is having sex regularly she will benefit from regular OCPills and condoms. Condoms are better as they can prevent against Sexually transmitted infections too. So While regular OCPills are very good at preventing pregnancy, condoms are best at protecting against STIs hence a combination of these will be best
