Patient's question:
I currently have two children, and I have always used oral contraceptives for birth control during sexual activity. My friend told me that post-coital contraception is also effective. Here, I would like to consult everyone—when is the best time to take post-coital contraception? If anyone knows, please reply to me. Thank you for your response.Doctor's answer:
This emergency contraceptive pill, then you just need to take it orally after intercourse. The earlier you take it, the better, and it's better for breastfeeding rates. There's just one thing I need to remind you: avoid eating for at least two hours before and after taking the pill to prevent nausea and vomiting, which could cause the medication to be expelled and affect breastfeeding effectiveness.Additionally, I have a suggestion: it's better to use condoms or breastfeeding as contraception. This pill contains many hormones, and taking too much can be harmful to your health. Relatively speaking, the side effects are quite significant.
