Patient's question:
When I had sex with my boyfriend, we didn't use a condom. I took emergency contraception pills afterward. I know that the side effects of birth control pills can be significant, and I've also heard that they can cause ectopic pregnancy. I'm not sure if that's true or not.Doctor's answer:
Any emergency contraceptive pill contains a large amount of hormones, which is an unavoidable measure when conventional breastfeeding is successful. It may easily lead to endocrine disorders, disrupt the menstrual cycle, or even cause amenorrhea. It is recommended that the number of doses taken within a year should not exceed three. Safe and effective measures such as condoms or intrauterine devices can be used for breastfeeding. There is no specific view that emergency contraception pills will definitely cause ectopic pregnancy! Wishing you health!In addition to treating ectopic pregnancy, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet and maintain a joyful mood in daily life to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
