Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. What is the function of Yuting?Doctor's answer:
Hello, emergency contraception pills are different from regular birth control pills. They only provide protection for a single instance of unprotected intercourse or when regular contraception fails. Multiple instances of unprotected intercourse with only a single dose of emergency contraception can lead to unpredictable effects and an increased failure rate of emergency contraception. Therefore, if sexual activity occurs within 72 hours after taking two pills, it may affect the efficacy of the previously taken emergency contraception, increasing the chance of contraceptive failure. If you are in your ovulation period, it may even lead to pregnancy.
