Patient's question:
I had sex with my boyfriend yesterday, but I didn't breastfeed. I was upset about getting pregnant. Today, I went to the pharmacy and bought birth control pills. But the people at the pharmacy recommended me to take vitamins. What vitamins should I take with birth control pills?Doctor's answer:
Taking emergency contraception pills after taking vitamin C can reduce the side effects of the pills. Pay attention to diet and nutrition, get plenty of rest, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Generally, emergency contraception pills should be taken on an empty stomach, and nothing should be eaten afterward. It is best to only drink hot water for two hours (including drinks). Decide whether to take two medications simultaneously. Any medication has certain side effects, so taking these two medications excessively or frequently can also lead to adverse reactions. It is recommended that patients use these medications cautiously to avoid any impact on their physical health.
