Patient's question:
You have taken the emergency contraceptive pill levonorgestrel. How many days after taking it can you eat seafood? Can you eat seafood after taking emergency contraception?Doctor's answer:
After sex, the success rate of breastfeeding is relatively high when emergency breastfeeding is adopted promptly. However, there needs to be a two-hour fast before and after taking the medication. Generally, seafood and other foods are not recommended to be consumed within 3 days after taking the medication. Once the medication is fully digested and absorbed, it can be eaten. Emergency breastfeeding is very harmful to a woman's body. Repeated use may interfere with pregnancy. It is better not to eat it in the future. Now, you can eat more fresh vegetables and water to aid digestion, replenish vitamins, reduce the side effects of the medication, and avoid greasy, spicy foods that may affect drinking. Seafood should be eaten less.
