Experts warn: Taking too many birth control pills can cause great harm to women.

Taking birth control pills for emergency contraception can still have a good contraceptive effect, but you can't take too many birth control pills.

However, the following side effects may occur:

1. Nausea: After taking emergency contraceptive pills, nausea symptoms generally last no more than 24 hours.

5. Changes in ovulation period: Taking emergency contraceptive pills will affect the menstrual cycle. Women should try to use highly effective contraceptive methods after this, and avoid taking risks with emergency contraceptive pills or unscientific contraceptive methods such as safe period and ejaculation outside the body, which can lead to infertility in severe cases.
