After sexual activity, I took birth control pills, and my period which was supposed to come this month hasn't arrived.

Patient's question:

On the second day of my period, I had sexual intercourse with him. Two days later, I took emergency contraception. After that, my period became very light. This month, my period didn't come, and it has been almost a month with no period. I have been tested twice and there is no pregnancy. What is going on? What should I do? Should I take medication? What kind of medication? Is the problem serious?

Doctor's answer:

??????Hello, the use of emergency contraception may affect the endocrine system, leading to endocrine disorders and causing menstrual irregularities. Your current condition falls under menstrual irregularities.
It is recommended to use reliable contraception methods during sexual activity in the future, such as using condoms or taking oral short-term birth control pills.
