After taking the contraceptive pill a few times, menstruation hasn't come for a long time. What should I do?

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: I have taken the birth control pill several times this month. Around 15 days after my period, I noticed bleeding. The amount was not much, the color was dark red, and it had an acidic odor. It lasted for about 12 days, with two days where the flow was heavier. Now, I have some bloating and pain below the abdomen, and my period has not arrived yet. Doctor, what could be the reason for this? Am I suffering from endometrial hyperplasia???

Doctor's answer:

The birth control pill has a significant impact on menstruation. Don't worry too much and relax. Pay more attention to hygiene in daily life and clean the vulva frequently. It's best to use a pregnancy test first. When you don't want to get pregnant, always use contraception measures like condoms during intercourse. It's recommended to observe carefully and do a urine pregnancy test to rule out the possibility of pregnancy. Temporary medication is not needed. If pregnancy is ruled out, delayed menstruation can be treated with progesterone under the guidance of a doctor.
