Had your period a day earlier after taking emergency contraception?

Patient's question:

I haven't been feeling well lately. Did taking emergency contraception cause my period to come a day early?

Doctor's answer:

This should be due to the side effects of medication, so pay attention to rest and carefully observe how the bleeding during the menstrual period is normal. However, it is normal for the menstrual period to come about a week earlier. Pay attention to hygiene, drink more water these days, and it is best not to eat too spicy foods. Be mindful of preventing anemia. For the next sexual activity, use protection. It is not recommended to repeatedly take birth control pills.
