What should I do if my period comes earlier after taking emergency contraception?

Patient's question:

Since taking emergency contraception, my period arrived 16 days earlier. Can I take Chinese herbal medicine motherwort to regulate it? If not, or if it doesn't work well, how should I regulate it?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, 7–10 days after taking oral contraceptives, the endometrium again experiences withdrawal bleeding, similar to menstruation. The side effects of birth control pills can lead to menstrual disorders, such as shortened or prolonged menstrual cycles.
1. Pay attention to avoid taking birth control pills as much as possible to prevent menstrual irregularities. Instead, try using condoms for breastfeeding to prevent the spread of sexually transmitted diseases. Pay close attention to your menstrual cycle and avoid taking medication to adjust yourself. It is best to gradually regulate your endocrine system naturally. Do not use Western medicine; you can take Motherwort Granules for oral administration to nourish your body.
