Please consult a doctor. In July 2020, I started having my period on 7/7. By August 2020, having sex on August 2 and using emergency contraception. However, I started getting my period right on 2/8 and it lasted 7 days. So is there any chance of getting pregnant? Please consult your doctor for help. Thank you.

Hello! The emergency contraceptive pill is a high-hormone oral contraceptive that is used to reduce the risk of an unwanted pregnancy after unprotected sex. However, during the use of emergency contraceptive pills, if used incorrectly or depending on the individual's condition, it will cause side effects such as: vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, nausea, delayed or missed periods. ... after taking the drug. Your vaginal bleeding may be a side effect of birth control pills, because the pill always contains ingredients like progesterone or estrogen. These hormones cause you to have vaginal bleeding. Sometimes this blood is mistaken for menstruation so you don't need to worry too much. Usually this will go away after your next period. However, if this symptom persists and becomes more severe, you need to immediately go to medical facilities for direct examination and more specific advice!
