Does birth control pills and traditional Chinese medicine cause menstrual period to come early?

Patient's question:

I have endocrine disorders. The doctor prescribed me birth control pills and traditional Chinese medicine. I have been taking them for about six days. Last night when I went to the bathroom, there were some blood streaks, and this morning when I woke up, there was a bit of coffee-colored discharge. I didn't take any medicine last night. I need to ask the doctor what this situation is and whether I can still take the birth control pills and traditional Chinese medicine.

Doctor's answer:

Based on your current condition, the main considerations are whether the menstrual disorder is caused by taking birth control pills or whether it is ovulation bleeding.
Advice:
It is best to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination and pay attention to monitoring the amount of bleeding to identify the cause and provide symptomatic treatment. In future sexual activity, avoid taking birth control pills excessively to prevent menstrual disorders or even infertility.
