Hi doctor,
During the period of 2 months, due to not being able to use safe contraception, I used 6-7 times of emergency contraception. The doctor asked me if using 6-7 times of emergency contraception in 2 months has any effect? Thank you doctor.

Hello,
With the question "Is there any effect of using 6-7 times of emergency contraception in 2 months?" , the doctor would like to answer as follows:
As a rule, do not use more than 2 times / month. If you have dizziness, abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding that is heavier or does not go away after a few days of taking emergency contraception, you should see your doctor. As for whether you use 6-7 times / 2 months has an effect on fertility or not, it is best to go to a antenatal clinic when needed. However, you should not be too worried that it will affect your health and feel more pressured.
If you still have questions about emergency contraceptive pills, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
