Why haven't I gotten my period after taking emergency contraception?

Patient's question:

Later, I took emergency contraception pills, and my period still hasn't come. Why is that??

Doctor's answer:

The probability of pregnancy is low. The menstrual period so far is unrelated to taking emergency contraception, which may cause irregular periods. It is recommended to take the medication 3-4 times a year, as excessive use may lead to serious consequences.
There are three ways to determine if you are pregnant:
1. Measure the middle part of the first urine of the morning for the most accurate result.
2. Have an HCG test at the hospital, which costs around 50 yuan and can be done at any regular hospital.
3. Have a B (color) exam, which costs around 60 yuan, though prices may vary by region. It can also indicate whether you are pregnant.
