Patient's question:
I took birth control pills this morning and now I have some skin irritation. Did the skin irritation occur after taking birth control pills? Is it possible to be pregnant?Doctor's answer:
Hello, skin peeling after taking oral contraceptives is a normal situation, because emergency contraceptives have a high hormone content. Stopping oral intake can lead to skin peeling. This neither indicates successful breastfeeding nor proves successful breastfeeding. Only the absence of a normal menstrual period can prove successful breastfeeding. So you don't need to worry. Wait and see carefully. Pay attention to hygiene during skin peeling. If your menstrual period comes back after one month, then it means everything is fine.
