For healthy couples, the chance of pregnancy in any given cycle is only about 20% to 30%. Please be reassured that previous use of the emergency contraceptive i-pill does not cause long-term infertility. While past smoking can temporarily impact fertility, your body recovers once you stop. At 28, your fertility potential remains strong. Clinically, infertility is only suspected after one year of regular, unprotected intercourse. Try to stay relaxed, and if you have concerns as you continue trying, a gynecologist can offer tailored guidance and peace of mind.

Taking an emergency contraceptive like the i-pill (levonorgestrel) often disrupts your hormone levels, which commonly causes irregular bleeding?like your two episodes in May?and can significantly delay your next period. While these cycle changes are expected side effects, there is still a small chance of pregnancy. To give you peace of mind, I highly recommend taking a home pregnancy test. If it is negative but your period is still delayed, please consult a doctor to help get your cycle back on track.

It is very common for your period to be late after taking the emergency contraceptive pill (like the i-pill). This medication contains hormones that temporarily disrupt your natural cycle, which can delay your period by several days. However, because emergency contraception is not 100% effective, there is still a small chance of pregnancy. To give yourself peace of mind, I highly recommend taking a home pregnancy test if your period is more than a week late. If you have severe lower abdominal pain or need further guidance, please consult a healthcare professional.

After taking the i-pill (levonorgestrel emergency contraception), your next period should typically arrive around its expected date?which would be around the 24th of this month. However, because these hormones temporarily alter your cycle, your period may arrive a few days early or up to a week late. You might also experience some light spotting before it starts. Please try not to worry, as these changes are very common. If your period is delayed by more than a week, taking a home pregnancy test is a good next step to give you peace of mind.

Emergency contraceptive pills, such as levonorgestrel, contain hormones that temporarily disrupt your natural cycle. This frequently causes irregular spotting or bleeding shortly after taking the pill, and it can also delay your next period by a few days or even a week. Your body is simply adjusting to the hormones. However, if your next period is delayed by more than a week, I recommend taking a simple home pregnancy test just for your peace of mind.

The symptoms she is experiencing?stomach pain, headaches, and leg discomfort?are common side effects of the hormonal changes caused by the emergency contraceptive i-pill (levonorgestrel). These fluctuations can last for several days to a week after taking it. To help her feel better, she can rest, drink plenty of fluids, and take mild pain relievers like paracetamol or ibuprofen. Reassure her that these symptoms are typically temporary. However, if her pain becomes severe, if she notices swelling or warmth in one leg, or if she develops heavy bleeding, please have her evaluated by a doctor to ensure her safety.
