A member asked:
I took an oral contraceptive pill without me having sexual intercouse...i just took it.....can it be the cause of my recent amenorrhea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why?: Why would you take just one oral contraceptive pill? A single pill should not cause your period to be late unless you are talking about an emergency contraceptive which can alter your cycle but there is no reason to use emergency contraception if you aren't having sex.
