Will taking birth control pills affect pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Could taking birth control pills affect pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, emergency contraception pills can only be used as a backup measure after contraceptive failure and should not be used as a regular form of contraception. Repeatedly taking emergency contraception pills can lead to menstrual disorders, bleeding or spotting, prolonging the cycle and causing inconvenience in women's lives and work, potentially delaying their next period. Temporary medication may also cause a temporary increase followed by a decrease in hormone levels in the blood, resulting in withdrawal bleeding and causing women to have their period earlier. Long-term use of birth control pills can lead to endocrine dysfunction and menstrual irregularities. Generally, it should not be used more than twice within a month, and multiple uses can also reduce contraceptive effectiveness. Pay attention to observing the menstrual cycle and take effective contraceptive measures in the future.
