What should I do if I have bleeding after taking the emergency contraceptive pill?

Patient's question:

I had some bleeding from my vagina this morning when I'm not on my period. I want to consult about taking post-coital contraception and how to deal with it.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if you have taken emergency contraception, it is a normal phenomenon for withdrawal bleeding to occur again. It also proves that contraception has been successful. If the interval is longer, it can be considered as one menstrual period. In other words, the next menstrual period will be based on this bleeding time. Although emergency contraception has a relatively good contraceptive effect, its side effects are also significant. It is best to avoid taking it as much as possible.
