Patient's question:
9 months ago, I took 21 days of Yasmin birth control pills and then stopped. I had one menstrual period afterward. Now in October, I am pregnant. Can I keep the baby?Doctor's answer:
Currently, medication is being taken during the early stages of pregnancy. Currently, the principle for taking medication during the early stages of pregnancy is "all or nothing." That is, if the medication has an effect, it will naturally be eliminated. If there is no effect, focus will be placed on early pregnancy. Therefore, this situation can be preserved, with periodic follow-up tests. As long as the embryo's growth and development are normal, it proves that the medication has no significant impact on the embryo's growth and development. Proper checks and screenings should be conducted throughout the pregnancy, especially for the triple screen and 4D ultrasound. Any issues will be detected through these screenings.
