Patient's question:
I and my boyfriend are very affectionate. I would like to ask, if you have a period after taking birth control pills, can you still get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
When using birth control pills, as long as they are used correctly, they can generally effectively prevent pregnancy. For example, emergency contraception pills need to be taken within 72 hours after intercourse. After taking them, there may be a second withdrawal bleeding, which indicates successful contraception. This bleeding can be treated as a menstrual period, and patients can carefully observe according to their own conditions.
