Patient's question:
I've been married to my husband for over a year. Because I've never been ready to have a child, there are many emergency contraceptive pills on the bedside table. Last month, I found out I was pregnant. I felt I was too old, so I decided to leave the child behind. However, I mixed the emergency contraceptive pills with vitamins and took them together. What happens if you take emergency contraceptive pills after getting pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Emergency contraception pills have a short-term contraceptive effect. If you discover that you have taken emergency contraception pills mixed with vitamins during pregnancy, and if there is no vaginal bleeding, a thorough ultrasound examination shows normal development of the gestational sac, fetal heartbeat, and fetal growth, it should not pose a significant problem. It is recommended that you relax and not be overly anxious. Take low-dose folic acid orally to prevent fetal malformations, maintain a balanced diet with adequate nutrition, eat light and fresh vegetables, consume sufficient fruits, and undergo regular prenatal check-ups.
