Patient's question:
Approximately five days ago, I didn't take proper contraceptive measures during cohabitation, so on the third day, I bought and took Yuting emergency contraceptive pills from a pharmacy. This morning, I've already started experiencing bleeding again, but the amount is not significant. This is my first time taking emergency contraceptive pills. Is it normal to bleed after taking Yuting, and will it affect breastfeeding successfully?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking: If vaginal bleeding similar to menstrual flow reappears within one week after taking emergency contraceptive pills (Yuzhentong), it indicates successful breastfeeding. If the vaginal bleeding is only a small amount and intermittent, it does not indicate successful breastfeeding. In such cases, you should delay your menstrual cycle and take a timely urine pregnancy test to rule out the possibility of early pregnancy. The effectiveness of Yuzhentong for breastfeeding exceeds 90%.
