Doctor's answer:
Methods to delay menstruation can involve taking birth control pills. If you take only a small amount, it won't cause much interference later on. It is still recommended to use this method. However, if you use this method long-term, it may disrupt your future menstrual cycle. Therefore, these methods should absolutely not be used long-term to effectively avoid harm to your body. If you experience menstrual irregularities, please seek medical attention from a gynecologist promptly.
