Patient's question:
I have been living with my boyfriend for a long time, and I have always been taking birth control pills. Do you think taking birth control pills for a long time can lead to infertility?Doctor's answer:
This birth control pill will not directly cause infertility under normal circumstances, so there is no need to worry too much about it. However, I must remind you that this birth control pill should not be taken orally for a long time. It contains certain hormones, and if taken orally for an extended period, it may lead to endocrine disorders, menstrual irregularities, and other adverse consequences. In such cases, it may indirectly affect the chances of pregnancy, and in some cases, even lead to infertility. Therefore, it is best not to use birth control pills for long-term contraception.
