Patient's question:
Taking birth control pills, experiencing a small amount of bleeding, does it count as successful contraception?Doctor's answer:
Women of childbearing age taking emergency contraception at different times during their menstrual cycle may have different effects on their menstruation. If emergency contraception is taken in the first half of the menstrual cycle, it may cause significant interference with a woman's menstruation, leading to vaginal bleeding. This does not indicate contraceptive failure.
