I'm pregnant and having some breathing problems along with wheezing. I'm really worried about which inhaler would be safe to use during pregnancy. Could you help me figure this out?

I recently took the emergency contraceptive pill, and I'm 17 years and 7 months old. I'm kind of worried, will it harm me? Also, I took it around the 50th hour after having sexwill it still be effective? And I'm curious, what are some common side effects of taking the pill? Can this make my period show up later than it usually does?

Taking an emergency contraceptive pill at 17 years 7 months old should not harm you. It is generally safe for use in adolescents. However, it is important to use it as directed. Taking the pill at the 50th hour after unprotected sex may reduce its effectiveness, but it can still work to prevent pregnancy. The general side effects of emergency contraceptive pills may include nausea, vomiting, fatigue, headache, breast tenderness, and changes in menstrual bleeding patterns. Your period may be delayed or earlier than usual after taking the pill. It is common for the menstrual cycle to be temporarily disrupted after using emergency contraception. To prevent any potential harm or unwanted side effects, it is important to use emergency contraceptive pills correctly and consider regular contraception methods for future protection.

I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I got my period on April 12th and ended up having unprotected sex on the 5th day, which was April 16th. Just to be cautious, I took a pill on April 18th, within the 72-hour window. Then on May 3rd, I started bleeding again, but it wasn't as heavy as my normal period and went on for 45 days. I had all the usual period symptoms like cramps and back pain. Now I'm not sure if that was withdrawal bleeding or if my period just came early. Todays the 20th and I still havent got my period, assuming that previous bleeding was withdrawal. Is there a chance I might be pregnant?
