Patient's question:
Yesterday, I traveled with my boyfriend and we slept in the same bed. He didn't take any precautions, and said he came inside. Later, I went to the pharmacy and bought emergency contraception pills to take. I heard that this medication can have some side effects, and whether it could cause uterine fibroids?Doctor's answer:
Uterine fibroids are estrogen-dependent tumors. Taking estrogen-containing products can affect the tumor, but Danmei's ingredients are a single progestogen and do not contain estrogen, so it will never be affected and there is no need to worry. Withdrawal bleeding is a common pharmacological phenomenon after taking birth control pills, and it has no impact on the body. It is best to use male tools for breastfeeding or a diaphragm, and if used in conjunction with contraceptive cream, the effect is better.2. If pregnancy is no longer recommended, the method of inducing abortion via fallopian tubes can be used as a permanent breastfeeding solution. Not only can women with uterine fibroids not take emergency contraception pills, but healthy individuals should also avoid taking them.
