Patient's question:
I previously didn't want children with my husband, but now I want children. However, I took birth control pills two days ago. How long after taking birth control pills can I get pregnant?Doctor's answer:
If you have taken emergency contraception pills, you can usually get pregnant in the next few months. However, it is best to start taking folic acid tablets three months before trying to conceive and continue taking them for the first three months of pregnancy, mainly to prevent neural tube defects in newborns. If you are regularly taking short-acting birth control pills, it is better to wait for three months before trying to conceive. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
