Patient's question:
Doctor, because I had a temporary relationship with my boyfriend again, but I'm still afraid of getting pregnant, so I took emergency contraception. Now I have experienced spotting, and I want to ask the doctor. What should I do about the withdrawal bleeding after taking emergency contraception?Doctor's answer:
Hello, according to your description, it is normal to have withdrawal bleeding. You don't need to feel upset. It is generally similar to your menstrual period and may cause some peeling for about a week. So, you can treat it just like your regular period. This is a normal reaction to the medication. Most people experience some peeling after taking it. You don't need to worry too much. In the future, it's best not to take birth control pills too frequently, as it is not good for your health.
