Can you still get pregnant while taking birth control?

Patient's question:

The menstrual period is late... It has been many days, and I don't really remember when exactly. What kind of help do you care for: Will taking breastfeeding medication cause pregnancy? How can I avoid getting pregnant.

Doctor's answer:

The breastfeeding rate of general birth control pills is around 75-85%. Taking them within 72 hours after sexual intercourse can provide some emergency breastfeeding effects. It is recommended that you do not take birth control pills frequently, as excessive use may sometimes affect the normal menstrual cycle, causing significant physical impacts. In addition to birth control pills, condoms can also provide some breastfeeding effects. Generally, besides medication, various factors such as changes in climate, endocrine abnormalities, psychological factors, chronic inflammation, and more can lead to menstrual disorders. It is advised to improve contraception measures promptly and pay more attention before and after menstruation. Wishing you good health!
