Patient's question:
What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? The harm is relatively small. Can I take birth control pills on an empty stomach?Doctor's answer:
Emergency contraception pills are best taken on an empty stomach. It's not that you can't take them after eating, but the effectiveness is not as good. Additionally, the earlier you take the pill, the better the effect. If you wait two days to take it, it's hard to say how effective it will be. Breastfeeding women should not take birth control medication, as it can affect breastfeeding and milk production. It's more appropriate to wait 24 hours. It is recommended not to take infertility medication during breastfeeding and to use other forms of contraception instead, avoiding medication as much as possible. Wishing you good health.
