Patient's question:
I had sex with my boyfriend yesterday, but we didn't use any protection. I'm very worried about getting pregnant. I'm too afraid to go to a pharmacy to buy emergency contraception because I'm afraid my family will find out. I heard that I can drink traditional Chinese medicine while breastfeeding. What are the folk remedies for traditional Chinese medicine breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
No traditional Chinese medicine emergency breastfeeding remedy. Currently, you have two options. The first option is to decide not to be anxious. The earlier you take the breast milk after sexual activity, the better the effect. It is best to avoid taking it less than 72 hours after sexual activity. The second option is to use a coil within 5 days. This method is only suitable for unmarried or married women who do not have children temporarily. At your age, it is not very applicable. It is still more appropriate to adopt the first option. Pharmacies operate based on business, they will never care about your private life, so rest assured.
