I had unprotected sex with my fiance and took the ipill about 14 hours later. A couple of days after taking it, I experienced some vaginal bleeding. Should I be concerned about this, or is it a normal side effect of the ipill?

It's normal to experience vaginal bleeding a few days after taking the i-Pill, as it's a common side effect due to hormonal changes. This is usually not a cause for concern. However, if the bleeding is heavy or prolonged, or if you miss your next period, consider consulting a doctor to rule out other issues.

I'm a bit confused and worried because my last period started on October 3rd and lasted for 5 days. I ended up having unprotected sex late on the 9th and then took an emergency contraception pill the following morning on the 10th. But then on the 15th, I started spotting and it turned into really heavy bleeding for a couple of days, plus I've been having this lower abdominal pain. I'm getting nervouscould I be pregnant despite taking the pill? And is there anything I could take to help with the bleeding? Id really appreciate your guidance on this.

I have blocked fallopian tubes and PCOS, been married for a year and trying for a baby. The allopathic doctor recommended surgery but I'm wondering if there are other treatments like massage or ways to regulate periods naturally. Can you suggest any alternatives?
