Does long-acting birth control work?

Patient's question:

Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:
I've been divorced from my husband for a year now, but we are both temporarily not thinking about getting back together due to career reasons. We don't want to use condoms when having children, so I've been thinking about taking long-acting birth control pills to resolve this issue. But I want to ask, what are the different types of long-acting birth control pills?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you mentioned, there is a long-term contraceptive pill that should be taken for 21 days followed by one month of breastfeeding. In addition to taking it once a month, it allows for one month of breastfeeding. Generally, it is recommended to use the 21-day breastfeeding method for one month. This is because the side effects of this medication are relatively minor, while the once-a-month medication has a higher dosage and may affect the endocrine system. The above information can be used as a reference.
