Brief Answer:
Emergency contraception
Detailed Answer:
It's not uncommon for women to experience some delay in their periods after taking emergency contraception, and this delay can vary from woman to woman. So, if your wife has not yet started bleeding, it may not be a cause for immediate concern. However, if your wife's period is delayed for more than a week or two, she should take a pregnancy test to confirm whether or not she is pregnant.
You can consult a healthcare provider for further guidance and advice if you are still concerned. They can help answer any questions you may have and provide more personalized advice based on your situation.
Thank you, take care

After having cantraception is it necessary to bleed within 3 to 4 days right
Brief Answer:
Emergency contraception
Detailed Answer:
It's normal not to experience bleeding after taking an emergency contraceptive pill, as it works by delaying or preventing ovulation, and not by causing a period. However, some women may experience irregular bleeding or spotting, so this can vary from person to person.
It's important to note that emergency contraceptive pills are not 100% effective, and there is still a small risk of pregnancy even after taking them. If your wife misses her next period or experiences any unusual symptoms, she should take a pregnancy test and consult with a healthcare provider.
