Patient's question:
I haven't been feeling well recently. Does taking birth control pills have side effects after an ectopic pregnancy surgery?Doctor's answer:
If it is a chocolate cyst of the ovary, it is recommended to undergo laparoscopic surgery for treatment. After the surgery, it is acceptable to take birth control pills, primarily to regulate ovarian function. Taking them in the short term does not cause side effects, but long-term use of birth control pills may lead to female breast hyperplasia and may also cause menstrual disorders. After the surgery, the use of estrogen or progesterone should be under the guidance of a doctor.
