Is it normal not to have a menstrual period after taking birth control pills?

Patient's question:

Is it normal not to have a menstrual period after taking birth control pills? Regarding this condition, how should I best proceed with treatment?

Doctor's answer:

After taking birth control pills, it is possible that they may interfere with your menstrual cycle, but it could also be that the contraception was successful and you became pregnant. In this case, you should first go to the hospital for a thorough examination. If it is indeed confirmed that you are pregnant, you will need to decide how to handle the baby. If it is not pregnancy, then you will need to understand the thickness of the endometrium based on your ultrasound results and, if necessary, adjust the treatment to regulate your menstrual cycle. Wishing you good health.
