Hi Sylvia! This topic is so important especially for younger girls who are afraid and ashamed to ask question like that so they keep it all to themselves and experiment with their bodies without the knowledge. I was one of them. I took my first emergency contraceptive when I was 16.

I had unprotected the last day of my period (minor spotting ) and used a plan B. 5 days later I was spotting brownish blood, very lite for 5 days, which I assumed was a side effect. I was due for my next cycle 21 days later and my cycles are very regular. I am now 9 days late for my regular cycle date and haven't had my version of a regular cycle in over 30 days. So I'm confused and I went to the doctors they checked my ovaries and insides and said everything was fine and no pregnancy.

Hi @EmilyYoda this does sound like a pill effect if the PT is negative and no symptoms/signs of pregnancy. It can be so frustrating, I know. But we cant tell how long the period may be delayed for, so please keep an eye on the cycle, see your Dr if any new symptoms develop. Your cycle should return before too long.

@AskAwayHealth2 жыл бұрын
Hi Alondra, if you took the pill before ovulation then it has the best chance to work. Without knowing when you had your last period or ovulation, I can’t tell. However it’s possible the bleeding you had initially is the pill effect - but the pill can also bring your period forward; which may be why you’ve not yet bled again. Keep calm, repeat your test in another week, see your doctor if the period is still delayed and you think you have pregnancy symptoms. Thanks

Hello Cecilia The bleeding you saw last month may have been a period - but it could also have been a side effect of the pill. Depending on when you took the pill (early or late in your cycle, the period can be delayed as a normal effect of the pill). The advice is to do a pregnancy test if the period is late by 7 days; so please don't assume until then that this is a pill side effect only.

@AskAwayHealth2 жыл бұрын
Hi Jessica First I agree with you - pill effects can be very confusing!! It’s likely your period delay is a combination of taking that emergency pill - and- discontinuing your regular birth control. Ordinarily after you stop regular birth control, it takes some time for your own natural hormones to start affecting ur womb/ovaries again. Remember they’ve been ‘asleep’ while you were on regular birth control. Now the regular pills are gone, your hormones will gradually start their effects and your periods should resume - this can be after a couple of weeks or more. In this case, as you also took the emergency pill, this can also add an effect like delaying the periods a little. The light spotting can also be an effect of the emergency pill Don’t worry - these are all temporary effects and your period should get back in rhythm - unless you take any more pills. * a pregnancy test is always advised after a delay of more than 7 days to seeing your period when you’ve taken the emergency pill. Cheers

@AskAwayHealth2 жыл бұрын
Hi AMA thanks for your question. I don't know when last you saw your period so I can't give more specific information about why the period may be late, but one of the effects of the regular, combined pill is to make the periods lighter and more regular in most women. If you have only been taking it for a few months, it could be that your body is still getting used to the hormones and usually after 3 months your menstrual pattern becomes regular. *If you have missed the pill in the last few weeks please do a pregnancy test.* In respect if cervical cancer, here are the facts: 1. The combined pill (example Levofem) does not *cause* cervical cancer 2. However, there is a small risk of getting cervical cancer if a woman uses the combined pill regularly for *more than 5 years* 3. That risk stops or disappears when the woman stops taking the pill. So that by 10 years after a lady has stopped the pill, she is at the same risk of getting cervical cancer as a woman who never used the pill. I hope this helps but please recall that other factors are strongly linked to having cervical cancer like HPV infection, having many sexual partners, smoking and others - read my post here for more around this - askawayhealth.org/cervical-cancer-awareness-what-you-should-know/. If you can, make sure you attend your smear tests regularly to monitor your health and reduce any risk of cervical cancer. Best Wishes Dr Sylvia

Hi Marilyn, as explained in the video, the pill can delay your period, make it come early or have no effect on the period. You can repeat the test after a week, or contact your doctor if you develop any sign of illness.

My girlfriend had taken the pill back in December on the 31st and got her period 3 days earlier than expected which was January 9th but now later in February her period is 2 days late, could you explain?
@AskAwayHealth2 жыл бұрын
Hi the pill could make the next couple of cycles a lady has after taking them irregular. Of course there are other reasons a period pattern may change - this depends on their medical background. She can keep an eye on her pattern and contact her doctor if she has other symptoms. I’ve also got an email answer service where we can give more specific explanations having gone through her medical background -askawayhealth.org/askawayhealth-email-advice-service/ Best Wishes

My girlfriend had her period on the 15th of August and ended it on the 19th of the same month. We had sex on 22nd August and she took in emergency pills (contraceptive) she has to see her period on 11th of September but yet still she hasn't seen it and besides she has done pregnancy test twice and it is still negative? Can that be pregnancy??

How long should period be delayed if emergency pills was taken 4 times in one cycle within 18 days to the next cycle?
@AskAwayHealth2 жыл бұрын
Hi Vikkie, the studies we have tell us taking more than 1 emergency pill per cycle can make periods irregular. This could mean delays of a few or several days; or unscheduled bleeding and the length/ duration can be different for each woman. Thanks

Hi doc please answer asap I had an intercourse on the second day of my period. (December 1)Since emergency pills are not available i took several doses of birth control pills at once with 12hour interval. The birthcontrol had levonorgestrel and ethinyl estradiol in it. I took the first set of pills within 24hours. I calculated the doses i took and i had about 1.5mg of levonogestrel. On december 3 my period stopped. But it came back on december 8 until december 12. On my app tracker, it says my ovulation should be in december 10th. And my fertile window should start on december 5th. But i took the pill on december 2. (But still in 24hours after intercourse) My cycle is usually around 24-26 days. It is also my first time ever on pills Do you think i conceived? Do you think my period will come early or later than usual? Should i be worried?

Hello Rein, I can’t be specific so I would advise you speak to your doctor. With PCOS, you may have irregular periods and this may explain your situation - * but I cannot say so for certain. In order to continue the contraceptive protection, we advise ladies to continue taking the pill after their break except for any serious reason whether they had a period or not. However if they have missed some pills or could be pregnant this may also explain why the period is delayed and why to speak to their doctor to advise specifically. Thanks

Hi, Letta thanks for watching I don't know where in your cycle you met with your bf, but given that you used the pill ASAP, it's likely worked - the delay is possibly one of the pill effects.

I took a test and it came back negative. It's now 3 months after and my period is on track but I am having cramps and my belly is all of a sudden bloated. Is it possible that I am pregnant?

Hi Kay, if you've not had any sex in the 3 months since the last test, and you are having regular menstrual bleeds, it seems pregnancy is unlikely but you can request a blood pregnancy test to be sure. Best Wishes.
