Does short-term birth control pill treat menstrual disorders?

Patient's question:

My relative often has irregular menstruation. Some people say that short-term birth control pills can treat irregular menstruation, so they want to try this method. Does this method really work for treating irregular menstruation?

Doctor's answer:

Short-term birth control pills can indeed regulate the menstrual cycle, but this method cannot be used as a treatment for menstrual disorders. After all, birth control pills can pose risks to a woman's body, let alone the fact that the dosage required for treating menstrual disorders is very high. Therefore, it is still recommended that patients not use them indiscriminately and instead consult a trusted doctor for appropriate treatment. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
