Patient's question:
I have been married to my husband for less than a year, and neither of us wants to have children so soon. Yesterday, when my husband and I had sex, there was an accidental leakage of semen. After that, I quickly took emergency contraception pills. Now, I would like to consult a doctor about how long it will take for my period to come after taking emergency contraception pills.Doctor's answer:
After taking birth control pills, it may cause disturbances in the menstrual cycle for the current month, leading to early or delayed periods. Generally, it can recover on its own by the next menstrual period. It is best to avoid taking birth control pills as they may cause endocrine disorders and interfere with the menstrual cycle. You can use condoms for breastfeeding, which have fewer side effects, or you can breastfeed by avoiding intercourse during the ovulation period.
