Patient's question:

How to take drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets while breastfeeding? What happens to the organs if you take an overdose of drospirenone and ethinyl estradiol tablets? What can be taken together to minimize harm?

Doctor's answer:

The ethinylestradiol and drospirenone tablets are a type of short-term birth control pill, and taking them on the third day of the menstrual period is most effective. It is recommended to take them orally strictly according to the instructions. Do not take medication blindly without consulting a doctor. As the saying goes, "all medicines have three poisons." Birth control pills can definitely cause harm to a woman's body. They can easily lead to menstrual irregularities and disrupt the menstrual cycle. Therefore, it is not advisable to use birth control pills while breastfeeding. Instead, consider using condoms while breastfeeding, as they are safer and have no side effects.
