Patient's question:
I want to ask the doctor why I bled after taking birth control pills. I have taken these pills several times before without any bleeding. Yesterday, I took a birth control pill before having sex with my boyfriend, but before we even started, I started bleeding. It wasn't just a little. Is there something wrong with the pills, or is there something wrong with my body?Doctor's answer:
Hello, this is a drug reaction, and it's not that there is bleeding every time after taking the medication. So, it's relatively normal that you experienced bleeding after taking the medicine this time, and it doesn't mean there's a problem with your body. Therefore, you don't need to worry. The bleeding is generally similar to menstruation, lasting about a week. Please wait a few more days and see. In the future, try to avoid taking birth control pills frequently and opt for other safer methods of contraception.
