I'm a TB patient and it's been 9 months since my surgery. My doctor has me on Rcinex and said I should continue it for 3 more months. I'm wondering if I can take ipills, will they work for me? Also, my periods are a bit irregular, sometimes 1 or 2 days off, or even 34 days. It's been 18 days since my last period, and I'm a bit worried. Can you help?

taking i-Pills (emergency contraception), as TB medications can interact with hormonal contraceptives, potentially reducing their effectiveness; additionally, your varying menstrual cycle and timing since your last period may impact the efficacy of i-Pills so consult gynaecologist
