A patient at increased risk for thromboembolic disorders will begin taking a progestin-only oral contraceptive. Which statement by the patient indicates understanding of how this oral contraceptive works

The options of the question are :

"I will need to use backup contraception if I miss a pill."

"Irregular bleeding is an indication that I should stop using this drug."

"The mini-pill is safer than combination OCs and is just as effective."

"The progestin-only mini-pill will prevent me from ovulating."

Option A

Explanation:

When a patient is taking a progestin- only pill then it should be taken for at least 2 days in order for the backup.

Most of the women stop taking pills because of inconvenience cause due to irregular bleeding.

But the intake of oral pills should not be stopped and should be taken for avoiding the pregnancy.

The irregular bleeding is not an indication to stop taking medicine so it should be continued as such.
