After taking emergency contraception, menstruation has not come yet.

Patient's question:

On June 25th, I did something with my boyfriend, and on the morning of June 26th, I took medicine.
Around the beginning of July, I had some skin irritation. Usually, my period comes around the 10th. But so far, it hasn’t arrived, and I don’t know what’s going on.
What kind of help I’m expecting: I hope to understand what my current situation is. Thank you to all the doctors.

Doctor's answer:

The rash you have now is likely caused by the side effects of emergency contraception. Generally, if there are no obvious discomfort symptoms, there is absolutely no harm in this situation.
Advice: However, it is recommended that you minimize the use of oral contraceptives in the future. Although emergency contraception is effective in preventing pregnancy, its side effects are also significant. If taken frequently, it can lead to severe menstrual irregularities, delayed periods, and may even affect future fertility.
