Patient's question:
For the few days before my period ends, my partner still had no control, and I felt that since it was almost over, there was no need to take precautions. However, after the fact, I felt sad again about the issue reoccurring, so I took an oral contraceptive. Therefore, I want to ask the doctor what could be the reason for the stomach pain reoccurring after taking oral contraceptives during my period?Doctor's answer:
Hello! The main components of birth control pills are synthetic progestins and estrogens, which mimic the hormonal changes of a woman's menstrual cycle to regulate the policy and suppress the ovaries, thereby achieving some effects of breastfeeding. As the saying goes, "all medicines have side effects," and taking birth control pills can also have adverse reactions, such as nausea, vomiting, and headaches. Based on your situation, it may lead to menstrual irregularities, and the pain could be due to: 1. affecting the body's endocrine system, causing uterine contractions; 2. inducing endometritis. It is recommended that you take Yi Mu Cao Granules and Hao Ran Women's Gynecological Anti-inflammatory Medication, and in the future, avoid taking birth control pills randomly during your menstrual period.
