Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The symptoms that you are having are due to the high doses of hormones that you have taken. Since you have already taken the tablets, there is no way to remove these hormones from your body. The symptoms will gradually settle over next 2-3 days.
Till then it is best to take rest and plenty of fluids orally.
You can also have a spotting and withdrawal bleeding after 1-2 days.
Hope this answers your query. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

Thanks Dr. Tayal.
I am feeling far better than I did a few hours ago. However, I do still have a high fever. Would it be okay to take a panadol / aspirin for the fever, or is it not recommended? I am also taking a seven hour flight later tonight, and would like to be in better health for it.
For fluids, I am drinking water, as well as a cup of hot water with honey.
Thanks.

Hello.
Thanks for writing again.
You can take acetaminophen or aspirin for the fever. Cold sponging will also help to bring down the body temperature.
You will soon feel better and fit for travel.
