Patient's question:
Yesterday, in an emergency situation, I took an emergency contraceptive pill. But why does taking an emergency contraceptive pill cause a rash?Doctor's answer:
For emergency contraception, most of the drugs are hormone-based. The dosage of these drugs for breastfeeding is relatively high. After oral administration, it may lead to a second withdrawal bleeding, which is a side effect of the medication. This generally does not require treatment. If there is excessive bleeding, it can be equivalent to a normal menstrual period, and the next menstrual cycle may be adjusted accordingly. It is recommended to adopt proper contraceptive measures to prevent unintended pregnancy.
