Pregnant after taking birth control pills

It is possible to get pregnant after taking the pill because, as a rule, the pill is not 100% effective and its effectiveness is closely related to the type of medication taken and the time of day it is taken. Currently, the most common type of contraceptive pill is the short-acting and emergency contraceptive pills. In the case of the short-acting pill, it is taken in a complete cycle of 28 days, starting from the 5th day of menstruation, and needs to be taken continuously for 22 days without interruption. As for the emergency contraceptive pill, as a remedy for contraceptive failure, it needs to be taken within 72 hours after unprotected sex. If you still get pregnant after taking the pill, it is mostly due to missed doses or improper storage of the medication. Therefore, it is recommended that when you take the pill, you should develop the good habit of taking it on time and according to the dose, and you should not change the time of taking the pill at will, and if you find that you have missed a dose, you should follow the doctor’s instructions to make up for it. If you are pregnant, you may be worried about whether the pill will affect the growth and development of the fetus, but generally speaking, the effect of the pill is “all” or “none”, that is, if there is an effect, abortion will occur in early pregnancy, if there is no effect, there is generally no teratogenic effect. However, it is recommended that pregnant women should not take it lightly and pay attention to maternity checkups to ensure the safety and health of the fetus.
