Patient's question:
I had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend today, but we don't want children right now, and we didn't take proper contraceptive measures during our intercourse—the condom broke. I've been feeling sick with a cold these past few days. I don't know if it's safe to take birth control pills while I have a cold.Doctor's answer:
Special cases require special solutions. If your breastfeeding success is due to the condom breaking or peeling, it can be corrected with medication. Currently, during a cold, it's best to go to the hospital for a thorough examination to determine the type of cold. Under the guidance of a doctor, treatment and medication will lead to a faster recovery. After taking birth control pills, you can carefully observe whether you have symptoms of vaginal bleeding. Sometimes, taking birth control pills may also lead to successful breastfeeding and pregnancy. If menstruation continues to be delayed, you can take a test to check for the possibility of pregnancy.
