Patient's question:
Last night I stayed in the same room with a friend. On the third morning, I took emergency contraception, and then I had my period. Is it normal to have my period after taking emergency contraception?Doctor's answer:
After taking emergency contraception pills, the skin peeling reappears. This is a side effect of the medication and generally does not require treatment. In most cases, the peeling will resolve on its own. If the bleeding is heavy, it can be considered equivalent to a menstrual period. The next menstrual cycle will be based on this timing. It is recommended to use proper contraception methods during intercourse. Emergency contraception pills are generally not advised for frequent use. Wishing you good health.
