What happens if you take birth control pills without being pregnant?

Patient's question:

I took the birth control pill for the first time yesterday. I want to ask what happens if I take the birth control pill without getting pregnant? Will it affect my body?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, birth control pills are just a form of artificial hormones that temporarily adjust the body's endocrine system. They will never have any significant effects, but they may cause irregularities in your current menstrual cycle. It's important to carefully monitor your symptoms. If your next menstrual cycle is still abnormal, you should have a thorough examination of the six sex hormones at the hospital. It is recommended to use contraceptive tools for birth control during daily activities, as this is safer.
