Hi i’m 24 years, it is my first time using the emergency contraceptive pill escapelle. I used the pill 24 hours after my unprotected sex and it is 5 days before my ovulation day. But currently until now i’m waiting for my next period still does not came and it is alreday 7 days late. I have done the pregnancy test and it stated negative. Is this normal?

Ans: Yes, taking the I-pill can cause delayed periods or irregular bleeding. Sometimes after taking I-pill spotting can occur within 7 days or cause delayed menstrual 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

I am 20 years old I'm taking pill in the morning after conception but now it's been 1 month and 2 weeks my period is not taken and i had taken pregnancy test also and it's negative

Ans: 20 years old
Taken ipill
Not got periods for 1.5 months and pregnancy test negative.
We need to understand i pill is an emergency contraception which contains lenonorgestrel which acts by blocking LH AND FSH hormones, prevent ovary by releasing egg or prevent egg sperm fertilization.
It does not regularize periods. Infact ipill can cause delayed or irregular periods or at times periods can happen as spotting.
Since pregnancy test is negative, I would advise repeat pregnancy test after one week if you dent get periods and then consult your doctor. She will advise you tablets to get periods.

Hi doc I'm 18years I took emergency contraceptive four days before my period and the four days has reach and going to 8 days I haven't seen my period yet

Ans: Hello! If you have taken emergency contraception
4 days prior to periods,
There are high chances your periods can get delayed.
The morning-after pill, also known as the I-pill, can delay your period by up to one week. However, in rare cases, your period may be delayed for several weeks. If your period is more than a week late, or if it is lighter than usual, you should take a pregnancy test and speak to a doctor.
The I-pill is an emergency contraceptive tablet that contains a synthetic hormone that mimics progesterone. It's not intended to be used as a regular method of birth control.

If you took I pill almost 15 days before period and your period got delayed by almost a week, is this normal? Though you know there is no semen release and you are sure about this. And there is no other negative symptom as well. Is this something to worry about?

Ans: Yes, the I-Pill (Emergency Contraceptive Pill) can cause a delay in periods as a side effect. The high dose of hormones in the pill can disrupt the menstrual cycle, leading to irregular bleeding or delayed menstruation.

Ans: If you want to do CFA then Branding and Advertising would be a wrong area to chose. It would be better to do general BBA / BMS degree or courses like BFM, BAF, etc. You can spend the money on MBA later.

Is nmims BBA Mumbai worth it? Are placements there good? Or should I do BBA/BMS from normal college and try for MBA (which would be doing regardless)?

Ans: Doing BBA / BMS from some tier 1 institutes in Mumbai would be equivalent to doing BBA from NMIMS. There are better facilities in NMIMS but the fees also is higher. Placement opportunities in some good colleges like Xaviers, Podar, Jai Hind are definitely on par with NMIMS. Anyways he would have to do further education in which case doing BBA or BMS from any good college should be fine.

Sc category rank in IAT is 2100 does he get seat

Ans: With an SC rank of 2100 in the IISER Aptitude Test (IAT), it's unlikely to get admission to any of the older and more popular IISERs like Pune, Kolkata, or Mohali. However, there might be a slim chance in newer IISERs like Berhampur or Tirupati, especially in later rounds of counselling if vacancies remain.

I scored 73333 overall rank in IAT 2025 is there any possibility of getting in any iisers

Ans: With an overall IAT 2025 rank of 73,333, it's highly unlikely to get admission into any of the core IISERs (Pune, Kolkata, Mohali, Bhopal, Tirupati, Berhampur, and Thiruvananthapuram). These institutions typically have much lower cutoff ranks, often below 2,000 for the general category. While a rank of 73,333 is significantly lower than the expected cutoffs, it's still worth exploring options like the newer IISERs or other science programs with lower admission criteria.

Sir I got 7300 rank (was) in IAT. Is their any chance of getting in iiser

Ans: With an IAT rank of 7300, getting into an IISER (Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research) is unlikely for the general category, particularly for the main BS-MS dual degree program. The competition for IISER admissions is very high, and closing ranks, especially for the general category, are typically much lower.
