Hi, I had unprotected sex on 21st jan and took an i-pill on 22nd. My periods were on 12th jan. On 29th jan I started bleeding again. It's been 3 days since I have been bleeding. It's not exactly heavy like periods but it is also not just spotting. I am bleeding clots. Is this a period or a side effect of the ECP? Is there any chance of pregnancy?

IPill is an emergency contraceptive pill. It is meant for use for those couples who have infrequent sex. As per your data, your last menses was on 12th Jan and the unprotected intercourse happened on 21st jan. You took iPill on 22, and following that the bleeding has been there as clots. But its not heavy. This is normal. Some women have large amount of bleed, some have less. But iPill has caused bleeding and thats enough to see that pregnancy will mostly not happen. Relax. If you are worried you may do a Urine pregnancy test on 22nd Feb. To see that its negative or positive.
