Does taking birth control pills the day before ovulation delay the ovulation period?

Patient's question:

What should I do if I get pregnant? The harm is relatively small. Will taking birth control pills the day before ovulation delay the ovulation period?

Doctor's answer:

Taking birth control pills may affect the menstrual cycle, thereby impacting the ovulation period. The side effects of birth control pills may lead to symptoms similar to early pregnancy, vaginal bleeding, reduced menstrual flow, or amenorrhea, as well as endocrine disorders and weight gain. In fact, under normal circumstances, practicing any form of contraception can pose certain risks to the patient. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. For those using contraception, it is important to practice self-care, such as ensuring warmth and avoiding exposure to cold water.
