I've been experiencing nausea, cramps, fatigue, and headaches six days after having intercourse and taking the i-pill. I'm really worried and wondering if these are side effects of the i-pill or if they could be early signs of pregnancy. Could you help me understand what's going on?

The symptoms you're experiencingnausea, cramps, fatigue, and headacheare likely side effects of the i-pill, as it contains a high dose of hormones that can cause such reactions. However, to rule out pregnancy, consider taking a urine pregnancy test if your period is delayed. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor.
