Does taking birth control pills cause HCG to rise?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower abdomen, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Does taking birth control pills increase HCG levels?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, the success rate of emergency contraception varies from person to person and is not 100%. Moreover, due to the high hormone content, taking it may cause side effects such as menstrual disorders and endocrine dysfunction in some individuals. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects the patient's life but can also lead to further gynecological issues. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, pay attention to dietary adjustments, consuming light and easily digestible foods, and avoid spicy, stimulating, and cold foods.
