Patient's question:
Taking emergency contraception can interfere with your own menstrual cycle, but it's unknown how severe the interference is. Some people experience severe interference, while others have mild effects. So, I want to know if taking emergency contraception can cause menstrual cramps, and how long the menstrual cycle will be delayed after taking it.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is normal for menstruation to be early or delayed by one week after taking emergency contraception. If menstruation is delayed for more than two weeks, it is necessary to consider how frequently using the medication may have caused endocrine disorders. Therefore, it is not recommended to take the medication repeatedly. Some people may experience irregular bleeding or amenorrhea after short-term repeated use, which can severely affect women's health. It is best to avoid this. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
