Can I get pregnant by taking birth control pills?

In life, for many couples, the main function of contraceptives is to prevent unwanted pregnancy. Especially for young people, when they have sex, they should take some protective measures, otherwise, if they get pregnant unexpectedly and have an abortion, it will cause great harm to their body. However, some couples still get pregnant after taking birth control pills, which raises a question: Can you get pregnant by taking birth control pills?

The medication may not work if:

1. If you have had unprotected sex many times before and are already pregnant but the woman doesn't know, then it will be useless to take this medicine;

2. During the period of taking emergency contraceptive pills, you happened to take other medicines that might affect their efficacy;

3. After taking the medicine, there is diarrhea and vomiting, and the emergency contraceptive pills are not absorbed in time;

4. Not taking according to the instructions;

5. Individual differences (let’s put it bluntly: just luck)

Of course, the most daunting question is: if emergency contraception fails, can the child be kept? Will the child be deformed?

First of all, you need to know what it means to be pregnant: when the sperm and egg break through layers of obstacles and successfully combine to form a fertilized egg, and the fertilized egg successfully implants in the uterus, you are considered pregnant. (What a tenacious baby...)

Secondly, you need to understand the contraceptive mechanism of emergency contraceptive pills: within the effective period, it directly acts through hormones (progestins or anti-progestins) to inhibit the discharge of eggs or prevent the fertilized eggs from implanting in the uterus.

In other words, there are only two results after taking emergency contraceptive pills - either it successfully prevents pregnancy, or it has no effect at all.
