Patient's question:
I have been taking birth control pills while breastfeeding for half a year, but I recently caught a cold. I want to ask if it's okay to take cold medicine and birth control pills at the same time.Doctor's answer:
The current situation is to decide on birth control pills. From a clinical diagnostic perspective, the use of emergency contraception pills is certainly harmful. If it's short-term birth control pills, then it can stabilize the menstrual cycle and regulate menstrual function, which is relatively better. Currently, if a cold occurs again, both can be used together, but there needs to be a separation time. If short-term birth control pills are taken continuously, they need to be taken according to the cycle.
