Patient's question:
I had my last menstrual period on November 14th, had intercourse on the 22nd, and took an emergency contraceptive pill (levonorgestrel) on the 23rd. On the 29th, I had another menstrual period, but it was light in flow, and it has been going on for 8 days now without stopping, whereas my usual period lasts only 5 days. I would like to know if there is a possibility of ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
In your case, ectopic pregnancy will not happen again. Generally, the egg is released about 15 days after the period. It is recommended to check with a gynecologist at the hospital. This bleeding may be caused by other reasons, so it is important to identify the cause and treat accordingly. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Ectopic pregnancy is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is advised that patients pay close attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and changing underwear frequently. Finally, wishing female patients a quick recovery.
