Can I take birth control pills to regulate my period if I haven't had my period after the flow?

Patient's question:

I had an abortion surgery two months ago. Since the surgery, I haven't had my period. My friend said taking birth control pills can help regulate it, but I'm not very convinced. So, I'd like to ask: after an abortion, if I haven't had my period for two months, can I take birth control pills to adjust it?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, do not take it lightly. Birth control pills can somewhat suppress menstruation to some extent. Taking them may instead disrupt the normal arrival of your period, so you should not take birth control pills casually. After an abortion, it can affect the regularity of your period, but now you haven't had your period for two months, which is already quite abnormal. I suggest you consult a relevant hospital and seek advice from a doctor before making any adjustments. Please do not take medication casually on your own. Wishing you well.
