Can I take birth control pills for a long time?

For women who do not have the requirement to have children temporarily, they can take the pill for contraception. It is not recommended to take the pill for a long time because the pill is composed of estrogen and progesterone, which may have adverse effects on the body when taken for a long time. Whether you take the short-acting pill or the long-acting pill for a long time, it may lead to abnormal endocrine function of the ovaries and may cause disorders of lipid metabolism or water and sodium retention, etc. The emergency contraceptive pill is not part of the regular contraceptive pill and is composed of large doses of progestin, which has large side effects. Although the short-acting contraceptive pill belongs to the conventional contraceptive pill, it is mostly recommended that women should check their liver and kidney functions in the abdomen after taking it for about six months, and stop taking it for three months before continuing to take it to reduce the adverse effects on the body.
