Ans: Yes, taking the i-pill can cause delayed periods or irregular bleeding. Sometimes after taking I pill spotting can occur within 7 days and cause irregular bleeding also. The I-pill is an emergency contraceptive pill that contains a high dose of hormones that can disrupt your menstrual cycle.
But it is advisable to do pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy.
Or visit your nearby gynae to rule out other causes if delayed menses
