Can't you take contraceptive pills indiscriminately? These populations are particularly at risk from taking birth control pills
Many girls choose to take birth control pills to avoid pregnancy and do not use condoms during sexual intercourse. However, in fact, some girls cannot take birth control pills and the side effects of taking them are very significant. Kang Jiali, the Chief physician in obstetrics and gynecology of Guangzhou First People's Hospital, said that the contraceptive pill, especially the emergency contraceptive pill, was quite harmful. Controlling ovulation with the contraceptive pill had a great impact on the ovarian function and renal metabolic function of girls.
What are the side effects of taking contraceptive pills?
1. Early pregnancy reaction
Early pregnancy reactions often manifest as nausea, vomiting, and weakness in girls, which can occur in some girls after taking contraceptive pills. The doctor suggests that if this symptom occurs, you can drink some strong tea or eat food that alleviates gastrointestinal discomfort, and be sure to take medication according to regulations.
2. Menstruation reduction or amenorrhea
In addition to early pregnancy reactions, contraceptive pills can cause incomplete uterine development and insufficient secretion of glands in women, which can thin the endometrium and reduce menstrual flow. More seriously, some women may experience amenorrhea after discontinuing their medication, which is due to the excessive inhibitory effect of contraceptive pills.
3. Melasma appears on the face
After taking the contraceptive pill, estrogen in the female body will cause pigmentation, resulting in a dull face and Melasma on the face.
4. Vaginal bleeding
Some women experience occasional bleeding in their vagina during medication, or breakthrough bleeding similar to menstruation, which may be related to missed or irregular medication use, or due to insufficient effectiveness of contraceptive pills.
These 8 types of women are not suitable for taking birth control pills
1. People with hepatitis or nephritis, whether acute or chronic, should not take birth control pills because they metabolize and excrete in the liver and kidneys of the human body. If taken by people with such diseases, it will greatly increase the burden on the liver and kidneys.
2. Women with high blood pressure are not suitable for use as taking medication can lead to increased blood pressure and pose risks.
3. Patients with diabetes should not use it because their blood sugar will rise after taking the medicine.
4. People with heart disease or cerebrovascular disease should not take birth control pills because the estrogen in the pills can retain substances such as water and sodium in the body of the user, exacerbating the burden on the heart, and can also induce cerebral thrombosis, myocardial infarction, etc.
