Patient's question:
I took traditional Chinese medicine for regulating irregular menstruation at noon today, and 5 minutes later, I took a birth control pill. Will this affect breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
If you didn't take proper contraceptive measures during sexual activity, you need to take emergency contraception pills afterward. However, you cannot take any other medications or eat anything within two hours before or after taking the emergency contraception pills. Therefore, if you are taking traditional Chinese medicine to regulate your menstrual cycle, taking the emergency contraception pills five minutes later will interfere with the effectiveness of the emergency contraception pills. Gynecological diseases are a common type of gynecological condition. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to maintaining external genital cleanliness and changing underwear frequently.
