Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. What should I do if my period is delayed by 12 days after taking birth control pills?Doctor's answer:
Emergency contraception pills, if taken according to the normal dosage instructions, are up to 99% effective in preventing pregnancy. However, they do have certain side effects on the body, such as disrupting the endocrine system in some women, leading to irregular menstrual cycles. The occurrence of menstrual disorders not only affects a woman's physical health but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit a gynecological department in the hospital for an ultrasound examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
