Can birth control pills avoid pregnancy for years?
Patient: Hello Sir I have a query. Can these birth control pills or pregnancy control pills (like MALA-D) hold pregnancy for 1 or 2 years? means if any lady being pregnant can avoid pregnancy for how much time through these pills. Can it be more than1 year???? Doctor: Dear member,Thanks for using healthcare magic. Birth control pills also known as contraceptive pills if used regularly are very effective in preventing pregnancy. If the lady who is consuming the pills is a young lady (To answer your second query regarding lady being pregnant and wants to avoid further pregnancies I assume your query is regarding the use of birth control pill after the lady has delivered her child and dosen't want another baby now. MALA d cannot be used in lactating or mothers who are breast feeding. In such a scenario I would usually recommend other methods.Kindly get back if you have more doubts on this issue.Thanks.Dr Bhagyashree.
