Did you experience menstrual irregularities due to emergency contraception?

Patient's question:

Taking emergency contraception pills has caused irregular menstruation. Blood test shows no pregnancy, and urine test is negative. My period is delayed by two days. What should I do? Endometrial thickness is 11mm, and both urine test and ultrasound indicate irregular menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

I saw your order. It's not pregnant. Actually, a delay of two to three days in menstruation is considered normal. Please wait patiently for a few more days and check the thickness of your endometrium, which should be the thickness when your period is about to come. If your period still hasn't arrived after a week of delay, you can take progesterone orally for five days, and then stop the medication for two to seven days to induce menstruation. Gynecological diseases are a common condition that can easily occur. During medication, women should pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients pay close attention to the hygiene of the vaginal area, with a light diet as the foundation.
