What should I do if I bleed after taking birth control pills?

Because they don't want to get pregnant, but don't take other contraceptive measures during intercourse, many girls often take emergency contraceptive pills to prevent pregnancy afterwards; some women are allergic to contraceptive rings and do not place contraceptive rings in the uterus to prevent pregnancy, so they can only take long-acting contraceptive pills to prevent pregnancy. But many women find themselves experiencing a small amount of bleeding after taking birth control pills, so what should they do?

1. Due to individual differences, vaginal bleeding caused by imbalance of hormone levels in the body after taking birth control pills. Do not stop taking the pills on your own out of fear. Continue to take the pills, otherwise you will bleed more.

2. If bleeding occurs in the first half of the menstrual cycle (1-14 days), you can take 1-2 tablets of ethinyl estradiol every day from the day of bleeding, and take it together with the original contraceptive pill until the 22nd day. If bleeding occurs in the second half of the menstrual cycle (14-28 days), you can take half a tablet to one tablet of short-acting oral medicine every day from the day of bleeding, and take it together with the original contraceptive pill until the 22nd day.

If the vaginal bleeding period is close to the menstrual period, that is, it occurs when taking the last few contraceptive pills; or if the bleeding is heavy and the medication is stopped on its own, then treat the bleeding at this time as a menstrual period and treat it as a menstrual period. Start taking oral contraceptive pills for the next cycle on the 5th day of the menstrual period. If ethinyl estradiol is taken to prevent vaginal bleeding, it is generally taken for 3 consecutive menstrual cycles and then stopped.

If bleeding recurs after stopping the additional medication, ethinyl estradiol may be added in the same manner. If you do not want to take any more pills, you can change the medicine. If vaginal bleeding occurs while taking oral short-acting contraceptive No. 1, you can change to No. 2 or 0. If vaginal bleeding occurs while taking oral short-acting contraceptive No. 2 or 0, you can change to No. 1. However, you must complete a cycle of 22 days of medicine before you can change to another contraceptive.

Due to individual differences, some women will experience uterine bleeding after taking birth control pills, but it will stop after a period of time. If the bleeding is minor, you can leave it alone, but if the bleeding is heavy, it is best to seek medical attention actively. In addition, regular use of birth control pills can cause great harm to women's bodies, so it is best not to use this method of contraception.
