Patient's Query

Taken 2 pills of unwanted 72 And now I'm facing side effects like diarrhoea, severe stomach pain, cold, cough, fever, headache since 3 days it's increasing but not getting less
Fairy, welcome to icliniq. I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing side effects after taking unwanted 72 pills. Unwanted 72 is an emergency contraceptive pill that contains levonorgestrel, which can cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, headache, and menstrual irregularities. The side effects you're experiencing, including diarrhea, severe stomach pain, cold, cough, fever, and headache, are not typical symptoms of emergency contraception and may be related to other underlying health issues. In the meantime, here are some steps you can take to manage your symptoms: 1. Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration caused by diarrhea. 2. Rest: Allow your body to rest and recover from the side effects. Avoid strenuous activities that may worsen your symptoms. 3. Manage pain: Use over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen to manage any pain or discomfort you're experiencing. 4. Treat cold and flu symptoms: Use over-the-counter medications to manage cold and flu symptoms such as cough syrup, decongestants, and antihistamines. 5. Monitor your menstrual cycle: Keep track of your menstrual cycle and any changes in your period as a result of taking emergency contraception pills. This will help you understand how your body is responding to the medication and when your next period is expected to arrive. Remember to always consult with a gynecologist. if you have any concerns about your health or if your symptoms persist for an extended period of time. take care . Dr vandana Andrews.
