Patient's question:
I always feel uncomfortable, and my spirits aren't too good either. Does emergency contraception affect the menstrual cycle?Doctor's answer:
After taking emergency contraception pills, you may experience withdrawal bleeding again. Generally, this withdrawal bleeding will occur within 5 to 7 days after stopping the medication. It can affect the menstrual cycle, potentially disrupting it for 1 to 2 months. As a rule, emergency contraception pills should not be taken more than three times within a year. If taken less than three times, it may easily lead to menstrual dysfunction. Finally, I wish you a speedy recovery.
