Adult products: What are the negative effects of oral contraceptives on the gastrointestinal tract
The adaptability of different women to oral contraceptives is also different. Some people have almost no discomfort, while others may experience some adverse reactions, among which gastrointestinal reactions are more common. Oral contraceptives are mostly formulated from artificially synthesized estrogen and progesterone. Some people may experience various reactions during the early stages of taking medication, with a few experiencing more severe reactions. Mild cases may experience acid reflux, nausea, loss of appetite, dizziness, fatigue, and mental exhaustion; Severe cases may experience severe vomiting, loose and thin stools, and some may experience loss of appetite, stomach pain, and bloating, similar to early pregnancy reactions.
Therefore, women who use oral contraceptives for the first time should be prepared for possible reactions and not mistakenly treat them as gastrointestinal diseases.
For those with mild reactions, do not have any mental burden. While taking medication, observe whether it is gradually decreasing or naturally disappearing. There is no need to worry anymore, indicating that the body can gradually adapt to this change.
Women with moderate gastrointestinal reactions should adjust their diet to improve their appetite. Try to drink dishes that are suitable for your taste, and cook with emphasis on color, aroma, and taste. Drink more light foods that are rich in nutrients and easy to digest. Try to relax your mind as much as possible, avoid emotional fluctuations and anxiety, arrange your daily routine well, and have sufficient rest.
A few people may experience particularly severe reactions, which require targeted treatment and timely treatment. Supplementing vitamins is very beneficial, such as vitamin B6 tablets, 20 milligrams each time, 3 times a day, and other vitamins such as B1 and C. If severe pain occurs in the gastrointestinal tract, spasmodic drugs can be temporarily administered to relieve symptoms. If it occurs repeatedly, contraceptive pills should be discontinued. Individuals with poor mental state can also be given small doses of sedatives.
With the widespread use of oral contraceptives, various types of gastrointestinal adverse reactions have been reported and the incidence rate is increasing. Statistical data shows that the use of oral contraceptives is directly proportional to the occurrence of thousands of gastrointestinal adverse reactions. This has attracted the attention of the medical community and family planning research departments, and they are actively researching and taking measures to reduce the occurrence of side effects. I believe that this deficiency will be overcome in the near future.
