When is the best time to take birth control pills

Patient's question:

Is it better to take birth control pills before or after an event?
What's the difference? Please explain clearly, thank you!!1

Doctor's answer:

If pregnancy is not a consideration and you have had intercourse, it is recommended that you take emergency contraception within 72 hours of intercourse. For future intercourse, it is advisable to consistently use condoms. In fact, under normal circumstances, practicing any form of contraception can cause some harm to a pregnant individual. Therefore, patients should pay attention to nursing and health care. Contraceptive users should take care of themselves, such as maintaining a balanced diet and avoiding cold, spicy, and irritating foods.
