What should I do if my stomach hurts after taking birth control pills?

Patient's question:

Because I felt uncomfortable wearing a condom, so yesterday during sexual activity, I took birth control pills. But today, my stomach feels particularly painful. I want to consult about what could be causing the stomach pain after taking birth control pills. Is it necessary to go to the hospital for this situation?

Doctor's answer:

Males may find it somewhat uncomfortable to use condoms for a long time. However, if taking birth control pills, there are also certain risks involved. If abdominal pain or discomfort reoccurs after taking birth control pills, it could be due to adverse reactions caused by the medication. It could also be related to gynecological issues, with the medication being a contributing factor. It is important to stop taking the medication immediately and undergo follow-up examinations to identify the specific cause. This will help determine the appropriate treatment plan.
