Patient's question:
Hello, your girlfriend took emergency contraceptive pills (Cycloprogest) half a month ago. On the last day of her period, she had intercourse again and took another dose of Cycloprogest. Could you please tell me what potential harm this could cause to her body?Follow-up question: Is there a high chance of pregnancy in this situation?
Doctor's answer:
Hello: As you mentioned, this situation is very likely to lead to menstrual irregularities.Cyclopropane is an emergency contraceptive pill, used for emergency contraception within 72 hours after sexual intercourse. If you are not pregnant now and it is not for emergency contraception, taking it may cause bleeding 2-7 days later, or it may not. Due to these side effects, it does not necessarily occur. If your period is already delayed, you should first check if you are pregnant and avoid taking medication randomly.
