Patient's question:
I used to have a very regular menstrual cycle. Recently, I have taken emergency contraception once every month for the past three months. This month, my period started on the 4th and ended around the 8th. Around the 10th, I took another dose of emergency contraception. Today is the 16th, and I have my period again. What is going on? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, regarding the phenomenon of menstrual irregularity, the cause may be due to organic lesions or functional disorders. It is a very common gynecological issue among women, and sometimes factors such as poor mood or being suddenly away from home can also trigger it. Generally, the problem is not serious, but it cannot be ruled out that it may be caused by lesions. If there are other abnormalities or discomforts, it is recommended to undergo relevant examinations to identify the specific cause before proceeding with treatment. Generally, this does not affect fertility, and it can mainly be treated through TCM regulation methods. It is advised to consult with a professional doctor.
