Patient's question:
A few days before your period, you took emergency contraception. It's been several days since your period was supposed to come, but it hasn't arrived yet. What could be the reason? What medication can help regulate it?Doctor's answer:
The mechanism of emergency contraception mainly involves affecting the hormonal balance in the body, suppressing ovulation. Therefore, after taking emergency contraception, menstruation may occur again. This is a common side effect. For women who take it, menstruation may be delayed by about one and a half months. The amount of blood flow may vary, and it may be dry. If menstruation occurs again about one week after taking the pill, it may be due to the drug's effect. If the bleeding is not significant, it is generally not a problem. The above is advice on this issue. I hope it helps you. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
