Patient's question:
Condom broke. It was on February 5th.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is not possible. After the age of 40, a woman's ovarian function begins to decline, and the secretion of hormones in her body becomes less regular. If taking birth control pills, one should take regular birth control pills and not take emergency contraception pills casually. Birth control pills work by altering hormone levels in the body to achieve contraception. Compared to regular birth control pills, emergency contraception pills have a higher dosage, which results in greater negative effects on a woman's body. Some women may experience light bleeding after taking them. Women over 40 who frequently take emergency contraception pills may also lead to menstrual disorders, and in severe cases, even cause amenorrhea, affecting the entire endocrine system.Emergency contraception pills should not be used as regular birth control pills. For women over 40, it is recommended not to use emergency contraception pills. Instead, it is better to use condoms for contraception or place an intrauterine device.
