What should I do if I have side effects after taking birth control pills?

Patient's question:

I have been experiencing persistent nausea symptoms for about 20 days since taking the birth control pill. However, I have been feeling weak and dizzy all over, and my period has not arrived even after more than ten days. What should I do if I have had an adverse reaction to the birth control pill?

Doctor's answer:

Hello! Contraceptives contain synthetic estrogens and progestins, which inhibit ovary menopause to produce contraceptive effects. They are divided into long-acting contraceptives, short-acting contraceptives, and emergency contraceptives. After oral administration, the drug is generally metabolized and decomposed in the liver and kidneys, so some side effects may reappear, such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, poor mental state, etc. If your menstrual cycle is regular, and the oral contraceptives are also regular, but your period hasn't come, it is recommended that you go to a formal hospital for a thorough examination to determine whether it is menopause or pregnancy. The solution depends on the specific situation.
