As a drug that can prevent pregnancy, contraceptive pills are needed by more and more people in today's life. However, as a type of medicine, contraceptive pills can also have some adverse side effects on our body after taking them. The most common one is that it will cause endocrine disorders in women, resulting in irregular menstrual cycles. So will taking birth control pills delay menstruation? After taking emergency contraceptive pills, women's normal menstrual cycle may be disrupted, and the specific time is generally impossible to determine. So, how long will the menstruation be delayed after taking emergency contraceptive pills? Because women may disrupt their original menstrual cycle after taking emergency contraceptive pills, emergency contraceptive pills are an emergency contraceptive measure taken after conventional contraceptive methods have failed. It uses a large amount of drugs to suppress the function of the ovaries and ovulation, producing a better contraceptive effect. Generally, a delay of one week is normal. Contraceptive pills are hormonal drugs and their side effects may cause early pregnancy-like reactions such as vaginal bleeding, oligomenorrhea, amenorrhea, endocrine disorders, facial pigmentation, infertility or gastrointestinal discomfort, headaches, nervous tension, depression, skin pigmentation and acne, etc. Emergency contraceptive pills should not be taken more than three times in a year and can only be taken once per month. How many days will my period be delayed after taking emergency contraceptive pills? The hormone content of emergency contraceptive pills is very high, equivalent to the dosage of regular contraceptive pills for 8 days. It is normal for menstruation to be advanced or delayed by one week after taking the pills. Emergency contraceptive pills are not 100% effective and have a contraceptive failure rate of about 2%. If your period is delayed for more than 10 days, you need to consider the possibility of an unwanted pregnancy and go to the hospital for a check-up. Through the above introduction, I believe many friends have already known that taking contraceptives will indeed cause delayed menstruation. Not only will menstruation be delayed, but it may also cause menstruation to come early. This is because the properties of contraceptives cause endocrine disorders in the body. I hope these contents can serve as a reference for friends in need. |
