Patient's question:
Last month, my husband and I had intercourse without using contraception. Later that night, I took a birth control pill, but since then, my period has not arrived. It has been delayed by half a month. Could I be pregnant? Can a thorough examination at the hospital detect this now?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, you have taken emergency contraception pills, and now your period is delayed by half a month. In this case, it is necessary to consider the possibility of getting pregnant successfully while breastfeeding. Of course, it is also possible that the intake of emergency contraception pills has affected the endocrine and excretion, leading to menstrual irregularities again. Whether you are pregnant or not, this can only be confirmed through careful examination. At this time, you can go to the hospital to test urine hCG to confirm if you are pregnant.
