I'm wondering if taking the I-pill can cause really heavy periods that go on for a week or more? I've been experiencing extremely heavy bleeding for days now, and it's definitely more intense than my usual periods. Should I be concerned about this?

Yes, I-pill can sometimes cause changes in your menstrual cycle, including heavier or prolonged periods, as it contains a high dose of hormones. If your periods are unusually heavy for several days, it might be a side effect. If it persists, its a good idea to consult a doctor.

If your last period was on January 30th, you generally have until approximately 11 weeks from that date to consider medication abortion (abortion pills). Surgical abortion options, like suction aspiration, are usually available up to 13 weeks. Some clinics may extend the timeframe for medication abortion beyond 11 weeks, depending on their policies
