Can VEs really regulate the endocrine system when used with birth control pills?

Patient's question:

I took the birth control pill on the 23rd, but accidentally took it again yesterday, so I have to take it again. But I feel it's too frequent~~ Is it better to take birth control pills with VE? ?? What kind of help do I need: Is it serious to take birth control pills so frequently?? Would it be better to take birth control pills with VE??

Doctor's answer:

Hello, taking emergency contraception frequently can have a significant impact on the body's endocrine system. Mildly, it may only cause delayed or early menstruation, while severely, it may even lead to amenorrhea. Taking VEs and birth control pills together can have a certain effect on regulating the endocrine system, but it will never be very noticeable. It is recommended that you use condoms for sexual activity while breastfeeding. Generally, the number of times you take emergency contraception within a year should not be less than 3.
