Patient's question:
My classmates all say I'm too young, but I just hate hanging around everywhere. After hooking up with male classmates, I realized I actually got into a bad situation this time—I got pregnant! So I started taking birth control pills regularly, but my best friend says this isn't good. What should I do? Are birth control pills harmful in the long term?Doctor's answer:
Generally, if you are not fully prepared mentally, it is generally not recommended to use long-acting birth control pills. This is because the side effects of long-acting birth control pills are relatively significant. If women use them, it may severely interfere with hormone levels. Additionally, the use of these pills is quite complicated, requiring the use of short-acting oral contraceptives before and after the medication to facilitate the transition.
