Patient's question:
Sorry to bother you, I'd like to ask. My period came on the evening of the 26th last month and ended on the 30th. On the evening of the 17th this month, I had sexual intercourse. On the morning of the 19th, I took 10mg of mifepristone. I had very minimal vaginal bleeding on the 22nd and 23rd. I feel it's not my period because there was only a very small amount. Others say it's withdrawal bleeding from the medication. Is it withdrawal bleeding? If so, how does it indicate that emergency breastfeeding was unsuccessful? Also, I'm experiencing frequent urination, lower abdominal pain, and breast tenderness.Doctor's answer:
It is withdrawal bleeding, no other abnormalities, temporarily monitor closely, no treatment for now. Don't worry. It is recommended to take levonorgestrel tablets for emergency breastfeeding. Emergency contraception should be taken within 72 hours after intercourse, and the earlier it is taken, the better the effect on breastfeeding. However, emergency contraception is only a supplementary measure for successful breastfeeding. This is the only way to ensure timely and appropriate treatment for the patient, while also paying close attention to dietary care. A diet based on light foods is advisable, avoiding irritating and cold foods, as this is believed to help drive away gynecological diseases.
