Patient's question:
Since my husband and I share the same bedroom and he doesn't like wearing a condom, and I also don't want to get pregnant unexpectedly, let alone be prepared for a second child, I want to take birth control pills while breastfeeding. Because of embarrassment, I secretly bought Mifepristone Tablets. Hello, are Mifepristone Tablets a type of birth control pill?Doctor's answer:
Methoxyprogesterone acetate tablets are a type of progestogen that promotes the proliferation and secretion of endometrial cells. Through negative feedback on the hypothalamus, they inhibit the release of luteinizing hormone from the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland, thereby suppressing the menopausal process of the ovaries. Methoxyprogesterone acetate tablets are not a form of birth control pill and are commonly used in clinical diagnosis to treat dysfunctional uterine bleeding and endometrial cancer. They should not be taken as a birth control pill. Do not use them indiscriminately on your own. Drugs are harmful in three parts, and it is not recommended to use them on your own. Birth control pills are generally compound preparations.
