Side effects of taking birth control pills and how long after can you get pregnant again

Patient's question:

What are the side effects of taking birth control pills on the body? Will it affect future fertility? Will it affect the baby to be born in the future? How long after taking birth control pills can one get pregnant? Note: Previously, you have not taken birth control pills and have not given birth. You had one normal menstrual period before taking birth control pills. You have no gynecological medical history.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if what you are referring to is emergency contraception, you can start preparing for pregnancy after taking it and having one normal menstrual period. It will not affect the subsequent development of the embryo. Emergency contraception may cause changes in the timing of your monthly period, such as it coming earlier or later, but there are no other significant effects. In fact, in general, practicing any form of contraception can have some negative impact on the body. Therefore, patients should pay attention to their diet. Those using contraception should take care of themselves, such as paying attention to keeping warm and avoiding cold exposure.
