Is it permissible to use pills to prevent menstruation in Ramadan?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Please. Peace be upon you. And upon you be peace. A question over the phone. Yes, it is permissible. Honorable Shaykh, she asks about using birth control pills in Ramadan, saying she consulted the doctor and he said there is no harm in using them so that she can fast.

The Shaykh : I tell her: Do not seek forgiveness for it.

The presenter : Do not use them.

The Shaykh : And breaking the fast. This is something Allah has lied about regarding the daughters of Adam. Is there anything? It is written in all types of authentic reports that one should break the fast and leave the body in its natural state.
