Patient's question:
On January 18, I took emergency contraception after having sex. On February 1, my period arrived as scheduled. Last night, on February 9, I had sex again. Can I skip taking emergency contraception? If I get pregnant, will it affect the child? What kind of help do you need: Since the first time I took emergency contraception, it has only been 23 days. Can I get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
If you conceive while taking birth control pills during this cycle, it is recommended not to carry this pregnancy. If you have taken emergency contraception pills, you can wait until after stopping the medication to conceive again. As long as you do not take them during this cycle, there will be no significant impact. The residual birth control pills in your body need 6 months to be completely excreted after stopping the medication. During the 6 months after stopping the medication, although the drug concentration in your body is no longer sufficient to affect breastfeeding, it may still have adverse effects on the fetus.
