Stomach Cramps, Taken Morning After Pill, Unprotected Sex, Pregnancy Test Report Negative. Reasons For Cramps?
Question: Last Friday September 16th I had unprotected sex, but he didn't go inside me. On September 18th I took the morning after pill. From then on Ive have minor cramping they feel like period cramps. I am not due for my period until October 5th, what could this be? Ive taken a couple pregnancy test all negative. Hope you can help.
Hello and thanks for the query.
Your question is a good one and I will work on providing good information for you.
The cramping you are experiencing is most likely from the morning after medication. This is a powerful medication which can induce uterine contractions as part of the therapeutic effect of the drug. These symptoms will slowly resolve in the next few days I can assure you. In the meantime maintain good fluid hydration and get plenty of rest - nothing to worry about otherwise.
Thanks again for the query. I hope you find my response to be helpful. If you have additional concerns I would be happy to address them.
Sincerely,
Dr. Galamaga
