Patient's question:
I am currently living with my boyfriend and have taken the contraceptive pill six times in a row. As a result, I am now unable to get pregnant, and I don't know what to do. Is it good that I can't get pregnant after taking the pill six times? Thank you for your explanation, Doctor.Doctor's answer:
If you are taking oral contraceptives, they can have significant side effects on your menstrual cycle. Generally, they mainly affect menstruation. If you experience infertility again now, it could be due to oral contraceptives causing menstrual irregularities, which may also affect menopause. Therefore, you should first go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to check the thickness of the endometrium and rule out any organic inflammation. Additionally, you should have blood tests for six hormones to assess your hormone levels. If your hormone levels are normal, you can monitor the development of follicles to determine if they are maturing properly. Under normal circumstances, if there is no significant inflammation or ovulation disorders, most people can conceive normally. Therefore, you need to maintain a calm mindset and avoid excessive psychological stress. It is also possible that excessive psychological stress is affecting your menopause.
