Patient's question:
My best friend just recently separated from her husband and wants to have a child right away, but she hasn't mentally prepared herself for having a child yet. After having sex during her fertile period, she secretly took emergency contraception. A few days after taking the pill, she started bleeding?Doctor's answer:
According to what you described, taking emergency contraceptive pills within 3 to 7 days may lead to vaginal irregular bleeding, which is a withdrawal bleeding. However, due to individual differences, it may not necessarily recur. This is a possible side effect of the medication. Additionally, it is recommended to rest for 2 to 3 months after taking emergency contraceptive pills before attempting to conceive. The above is advice on this issue, and I hope it helps you.
