Should I take birth control pills?

Patient's question:

Because I haven't decided whether to get married with my boyfriend yet, I want to avoid getting pregnant as much as possible. However, during sexual activity, I don't really want to wear a condom. I'd like to consult if taking birth control pills is a good option.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if you are not planning to get pregnant, you can still choose methods like condoms or birth control pills to help with breastfeeding. However, it's important to monitor your menstrual cycle to see how regular it is. It's recommended to use oral short-term birth control pills with fewer side effects. If you frequently use emergency contraception, it may lead to withdrawal bleeding or uterine infections. Please take care and pay attention to keeping your underwear exposed to sunlight for drying.
