What are the side effects of common birth control pills?

Nowadays, many couples mainly take birth control pills when taking contraceptive methods, especially women taking birth control pills is the most common. However, birth control pills have some side effects. If taken in large quantities for a long time, it will cause certain effects on women's bodies. Let me introduce to you the side effects of common birth control pills!

(1) If the early pregnancy reaction is severe, you can take the medicine after lunch, or take contraceptive reaction suppression tablets at the same time in each cycle, 1 tablet each time, 1 to 2 times a day, for a total of 1 to 2 days. The early pregnancy reactions of long-acting contraceptive injections are milder than those of oral medications and generally do not require diagnosis or treatment.

(2) Irregular vaginal bleeding during menstruation. For irregular bleeding caused by long-acting oral contraceptives, you can take one tablet of ethinyl estradiol. If bleeding still occurs, you can use other contraceptive methods.

(3) If the menstrual cycle is shortened, you can take 1 to 2 short-acting contraceptive pills daily 4 to 5 days before each menstrual period for 5 consecutive days to prolong the menstrual period.

(4) Excessive or insufficient menstrual flow generally does not require treatment and will return to normal after stopping the medication. Individuals with significantly increased menstrual flow should consider stopping the medication, further identify the cause, and use other contraceptive measures.

(5) Breast swelling, palpitations, hot flashes, back pain, abdominal pain, etc. will return to normal after stopping the medication.

(6) Headache. Pay attention to measuring blood pressure. If blood pressure is normal, you can continue to take the medication. If headache persists, you should consider stopping the medication.

(7) Some may have allergic reactions. If an allergic reaction occurs, the medication or injection should be discontinued and other contraceptive measures should be used instead.

(8) Increased vaginal discharge generally does not require treatment. If you find that you have a lot of vaginal discharge with a foul odor, and your vulva is itchy, you should go to the hospital for a check-up to rule out other causes of vaginitis so that you can receive timely treatment.

Side effects of rapid-acting oral contraceptives:

(1) Similar to early pregnancy reactions. The early pregnancy-like reactions caused by the contraceptive pills for visiting relatives are mild and generally do not require treatment. Among them, the nausea and vomiting caused by 53 anti-pregnancy tablets are more obvious, and the treatment is the same as that of short-acting oral contraceptives for those with more severe early pregnancy reactions.

(2) If there is irregular vaginal bleeding during menstruation, take 1 to 2 tablets of ethinyl estradiol for 3 to 5 consecutive days.

(3) Amenorrhea. You can inject progesterone or take short-acting oral contraceptive tablets No. 2, 2 tablets a day for 3 consecutive days.

The above are some side effects of birth control pills. Generally speaking, if birth control pills are taken for a long time, most women will experience irregular menstruation and period disorders. In addition, there may be an increase in leucorrhea or even amenorrhea. Therefore, when taking birth control pills, you must not use them indiscriminately. You should consult a doctor and it is better to take them under the guidance of a doctor.
