Patient's question:
I have discussed with my husband that we want to wait until our lives are a bit more prosperous before having children. So I have been breastfeeding continuously. But unexpectedly, I got pregnant. I am worried that taking medication will be harmful to the child, and now I don't want to give up this child. Is it okay to get pregnant while taking birth control pills?Doctor's answer:
If you decide to get pregnant after taking birth control pills, it is generally not recommended to have the child, especially with emergency contraception pills, which are highly harmful to children. From a clinical diagnostic perspective, the most common side effect of emergency contraception pills is the development of birth defects in children, particularly in the development of genital positioning. In the future, if you decide not to have children, it is best to use condoms for prevention.
