Should I take the morning-after pill? Is it less risky during my period?
28-year-old woman
Hello, I am not taking any contraceptive and yesterday I had unprotected sex. At the moment of ejaculation, my partner withdrew and it took a few seconds before ejaculation following the withdrawal. As for my cycle, yesterday I was still in my menstrual period (4th day, with less discharge). My cycle is 28 days long. As for the itss, my partner and I did some screening tests.

Hello, ma'am,
Considering that semen can survive up to 5 days, and that you are not taking contraception, I suggest that you go to a pharmacy for a short consultation to evaluate the need for emergency oral contraception.
Sincerely,

Hello,
i finally took the morning-after pill last Sunday. It was my last day of menstruation. Usually, after my period, I have spotting for about 3 days. As of today, I have pink/red discharge when I wipe myself or sometimes on my underwear
is this normal? I have no pain or change in my condition

Good morning, Mrs,
Taking emergency hormonal contraception can indeed cause spotting or bleeding. This does not necessarily indicate a problem as long as it is mild and temporary.
