Drinking emergency contraceptives may delay menstruation.

Emergency contraceptives work primarily by affecting a woman's endocrine system. They interfere with normal hormone levels, which may affect the menstrual cycle. They may inhibit ovulation or delay ovulation, which further affects the growth and shedding of the endometrium, leading to changes in menstrual cycles and delays in menstruation. In

addition to the medication itself, a woman's own physical condition and recent lifestyle patterns such as stress, irregular sleep patterns, and diet may also interact with delayed menstruation. If she has irregular menstruation, delayed menstruation may occur more easily or more severely after taking emergency contraception. If menstruation is delayed for too long, or accompanied by other abnormal symptoms such as abdominal pain, abnormal bleeding, etc., you should seek medical attention in time and conduct relevant tests to rule out pregnancy or other diseases.

Emergency contraception cannot be used as a routine contraceptive method. Frequent use may cause adverse effects on the body, such as menstrual disorders. When choosing a contraceptive method, you should consult a professional doctor according to your own situation and choose a suitable and safe method.
