Patient's question:
What kind of help do you need: Last month, my period arrived around the 4th. Towards the end of the month, when I had sex with my boyfriend, I didn't use a condom, but I took the birth control pill. The pill should have made me get my period about a week after taking it, but it hasn't arrived yet. It's been more than half a month.Doctor's answer:
Emergency contraception pills can disrupt your menstrual cycle, causing irregular periods, early or delayed menstruation, or abdominal pain. Therefore, your current symptoms are likely caused by emergency contraception pills.Advice: For your situation, it is recommended to wait and see for a while. If your period has not arrived within 50 days, you can visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination. It is advised not to take emergency contraception pills more than three times a year, as the risks are high, it increases the chance of unintended pregnancy, and it may also affect your future fertility.
