???There was once a case of ectopic pregnancy where the person took too many emergency contraceptives. What are the harms???This is a myth.

Doctor's answer:

Hello:
 During the first few months of taking oral contraceptives, irregular bleeding (breakthrough bleeding) may occur during the menstrual cycle. However, as the body adapts and adjusts, the bleeding usually stops. Some women may experience several months of amenorrhea after stopping oral contraceptives, but this will not have a permanent impact on fertility. Other side effects, such as nausea, breast tenderness, edema, and elevated blood pressure, may be related to estrogen-containing contraceptives. Low-dose pills rarely cause these side effects. Side effects like weight gain, acne, and nervous sensitivity may be related to progestins, and low-dose pills rarely cause these symptoms. Some women may gain 1.5 to 2.5 kg due to fluid retention, and weight gain may be more pronounced due to increased appetite.
