A 34-year-old woman in northern Vietnam who was regularly taking morning-after pills for years has been hospitalized with pulmonary embolism.

 

The 108 Military Central Hospital in Hanoi said Tuesday its doctors saved her life after she was admitted last week with chest pain and breathing difficulty.

 

The woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, told the doctors she had been taking 12-15 Levonorgestrel pills meant for emergency birth control per month for 10 years.
