Hello,

While it is generally safe to use emergency contraceptive pills on an occasional basis, frequent or regular use can disrupt the normal hormonal balance and menstrual cycle. Repeated use of emergency contraceptive pills can lead to irregular menstrual cycles, changes in menstrual flow, and decreased fertility.

In some cases, prolonged use of emergency contraceptive pills can cause damage to the reproductive system, leading to difficulty in conceiving or maintaining a pregnancy.

It is important to note that emergency contraceptive pills are not intended for regular use and should not be used as a substitute for other forms of contraception. If you are sexually active and want to prevent pregnancy, it is advisable to use a reliable and effective method of contraception such as condoms, birth control pills, or an intrauterine device (IUD).

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini, General & Family Physician
