While mild shivering can sometimes happen, a high fever and severe shivering after taking mifepristone are not typical and could indicate an early infection or reaction. Breast tenderness is common due to ongoing pregnancy hormone changes. Please contact your healthcare provider or visit your clinic immediately for an evaluation. They can safely check your temperature and ensure you are okay. In the meantime, try to rest, stay hydrated, and monitor your temperature. Your safety and well-being are the top priority, and your medical team is there to support you through this.

itchy bumps are likely razor burns or mild ingrown hairs. While Soframycin (framycetin) is a topical antibiotic, it is generally not needed for simple razor bumps unless there is an active bacterial infection. Using it unnecessarily can cause skin irritation. Instead, to soothe the area, try applying a cool compress, a fragrance-free moisturizer like aloe vera, or a mild over-the-counter hydrocortisone cream to relieve itching. It is also best to pause shaving until your skin fully heals. If the bumps become very painful or red, please consult a healthcare professional.

It is very reassuring that the emergency contraception was taken within 12 hours, as its effectiveness is highest (around 95%) when taken this quickly. The vaginal bleeding occurring five days later is a very common side effect of the medication's hormones and often suggests the treatment is working, though it is not a definitive guarantee. To be completely sure, she should take a home pregnancy test three weeks after the intercourse. If she experiences severe abdominal pain or unusually heavy bleeding, she should consult a healthcare professional.

Yes, you can use mifepristone and misoprostol while breastfeeding. To keep your baby safe, it is best to suspend breastfeeding and discard your milk for 24 hours after taking mifepristone, and for 4 to 6 hours after taking misoprostol. Yes, the four misoprostol tablets can be taken orally by swallowing them, though placing them under your tongue or in your cheek to dissolve is often recommended for better effectiveness. Please monitor your baby for temporary diarrhea, and contact your doctor.

You took Unwanted 72 (levonorgestrel) very quickly, and the bleeding you experienced is a common, reassuring sign that the medication worked. Your current indigestion and acidity are likely side effects of the pill's hormones or stress, rather than pregnancy. While your 12-day negative test is very promising, I suggest taking one more test 21 days after intercourse for absolute peace of mind. Your next period might be a few days earlier or later than usual as your body adjusts to the hormones.
