Need suggestions on symptoms after ECP
I am 37 years old and I had taken an ECP one day after intercourse which is 2 days ago. Since then I am having cramps and feeling sleepy and dizzy most of the time. From the next day of taking the pill I am having some black discharge. My monthly period date is still more than 7 days to come. I am afraid all of these are a reaction to the pill. Please suggest if otherwise and advise for the needful.
Thanks
