Patient's question:
Last night during sexual activity, I forgot to bring contraception and then took a birth control pill. After taking the pill, why didn't I have any adverse reactions? Does this mean the pill didn't work? Now, what should I do? I'm a bit panicked.Doctor's answer:
Re-engaging in sexual activity, if you do not want to become pregnant, must use safe and effective contraception. This is undeniable. In your current situation, you took emergency contraception after intercourse, so you have basically ruled out the possibility of pregnancy. The adverse reactions after taking emergency contraception vary from person to person. The circumstances are different. The majority of people experience very calm effects after taking it, without any physical discomfort. This does not mean breastfeeding is successful.
