Can I take Mifeprex if my period hasn't arrived?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower abdomen and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can I take Marvelon if my period hasn't come?

Doctor's answer:

The use of Mifeprex starts from the 5th day of the menstrual cycle, taking one tablet each night, and continuing for 22 days before stopping. Under normal circumstances, withdrawal bleeding occurs 2-3 days after stopping the medication. If the menstrual cycle is normal, the next cycle is started by taking the medication on the 5th day of the period. If a dose is missed, it can be taken the next morning without skipping a tablet. During the course of use, side effects such as nausea, vomiting, and breast tenderness are significantly reduced compared to other birth control pills, and it has almost no impact on weight. It has become one of the more commonly used oral contraceptives in recent years.
