Patient's question:
On the 29th of last month, I took birth control pills. This month, on the 6th, I had vaginal bleeding for about three days, but it was very light. On the 11th, I had sex, but didn't go inside. I'm sure I won't get pregnant. Now, I've had a hard lump with a feeling of in my left breast for three days. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
The patient took emergency contraception on the 29th of last month. On the 6th, there was a possibility of skin peeling, which could be considered withdrawal bleeding. Breastfeeding is generally successful. On the 11th, there was no penetration during intercourse, which does not count as actual sexual activity, and it should be absolutely impossible to get pregnant. The hard lump and tenderness in the left breast may be symptoms of an impending menstrual period. Please wait and see. In addition to treating gynecological conditions, it is recommended that the patient pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
