Answer
Dear Anjali,

Thanks for your email. I would not recommend the ipill if that is the same thing as Plan B or the morning after pill. There could be risks and dangers to your health from this. Please read the article on  http://www.optionline.org/questions/the-morning-after-pill/

Let me know what you think. So anyway, when you read the article you will see that often times it is unnecessary to take this pill and could cause problems in your future.

Please email me at CHERYL51@aol.com and put ALLEXPERTS in the subject line of your email. Looking forward to hearing from you.
