Does taking birth control pills delay your period?

Patient's question:

Menstruation is delayed by 25 days

Doctor's answer:

The biggest side effect of birth control pills is disrupting the female endocrine system, leading to the menstrual cycle coming earlier or later. However, there is no fixed number for how much it is delayed, as individual differences vary, so the duration of the delay can differ. The occurrence of menstrual irregularities not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, pay attention to dietary regulation, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
