Patient's question:
I took emergency contraception last month, but my period hasn't come this month. I also have some breast tenderness. I bought a pregnancy test and it came back positive, but after a day, some dark red fluid was discharged from my vagina, very little, and it was like my period was coming. Is this considered pregnancy? Also, I'd like to ask if the urine test is also positive when the period comes.Doctor's answer:
Taking emergency contraception pills based on your situation can easily lead to endocrine disorders causing menstrual irregularities. Generally, menstruation will return to normal three months after taking emergency contraception pills. It is recommended that you do not take emergency contraception pills frequently. Pay attention to local hygiene. If menstruation does not occur for a long time, you can try taking Black-Bone Chicken and White Phoenix Pills and progesterone to regulate it. The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to have a routine check-up in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and receive symptomatic treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene and maintain cleanliness in the perineal area.
