Patient's question:
Still hasn't arrived. On the morning of the 2nd, I was in the same room without taking any measures because I wasn't having my period, so I was very upset. Last night I took an emergency breastfeeding pill. My period was already delayed, and I'm wondering if taking emergency contraception will make it delayed even more. Please explain what happens to the period when emergency contraception is taken.Doctor's answer:
Hello, this situation does not rule out the possibility of emergency contraception delaying menstruation. In this case, taking emergency contraception may lead to menstrual disorders. Generally, the more emergency contraception is taken, the greater its impact on menstruation, and it may even affect future fertility. Therefore, it is not recommended to take it frequently. For your situation, careful observation is currently the basis. It is advised not to take emergency contraception while breastfeeding.In addition, during the treatment of gynecological conditions, in addition to symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary status and psychological state are also very important. The patient must avoid excessive mental tension and worry to prevent unnecessary impacts on the comprehensive recovery of gynecological conditions.
