Patient's question:
I recently started dating a boyfriend, and we are now together. Because I'm afraid of getting pregnant, I take medication every time after we have sex. However, I haven't had my period for over a month now. I want to ask the doctor what should I do if I get pregnant while using contraception? Is it okay to have a child in this situation?Doctor's answer:
If you get pregnant while taking birth control pills, it is generally not recommended to preserve the pregnancy, especially with many long-term birth control pills, as they may affect the growth and development of the embryo. If you do not plan to preserve the pregnancy, it is best to consider having an abortion. You can decide to have an abortion after being pregnant for 6 weeks. Do not do it before 80 days. If it is less than three months, then an abortion is not possible, and you will need to have an induction abortion.
