menstrual cycle on birth control

You should have your period about once every 28 days (or slightly shorter/longer) lasting no longer than 7 days. You may need to look into taking some birth control pills to help regulate your period so something like this doesn't happen, but if this is the only time it has, your doctor may decide to have you track it.

I thought after you got ones levels into range the menstrual cycle was supposed to normalize. I have had about 3 50 day cycles since I was diagnosed and started meds. Before my cycles were 37, 49, 34, stopped taking birth control in mid October. Was just wondering if anyone knows if this is normal for a women with hypothyroidism?

It's also normal because liquids are naturally present that are secreted by the vaginal walls in the course of the day. Their purpose is to naturally cleanse the vagina. It doesn't necessarily mean you were aroused, it's just like your mouth naturally being moist.

s appointment with your Gynecologist to find out what is going on and they can put you on the birth control pill or something else to kick start your period and get that going. Hope it goes well.

I used emergency birth control pills Contraceptive HD (OVOCEPT - HD). I used 2 pills within 24 hours after sex and 12 hours later used 2 pills again. I wanted to know when I will become period? and in emergency way that is just this 2 times? I am really worried please answer me.

Is there chances of getting pregnant while drinking the placebo week and not being on your period? This is my first month on birth control, and I took all my active pills throughout the month, even during my menstrual cycle. Now I'm at the end of the pack on the placebos, but I'm not on my cycle. We decided to have unprotected sex, but I wanted to make sure what the possibilities cab be.

I say this because a few years ago my periods started getting farther and farther apart, and it turned out my hormone levels were out of whack so the gynecologist put me on birth control pills to fix the problem.

I use to have horrible bleeding when I was younger as well. My Dr. put me on birth control pills to help with the blood flow and the back aches that came with it. It really worked for me! I also was very active and not obese at all. I would just ask your Dr. next time if there is anything that he would recommend to help you out with this problem.

Started on birth control pills 5 months ago simply to try and regulate my periods and lessen the severity of bleeding. First I was on Levlen which worked fine for about 3 months, even managed to skip a period successfully. Then started to get breakthrough bleeding half way through cycle which was continuous for 3 weeks but some days worse than others. Went back to GP who changed me to Brevicon which is a stronger pill.

I am ment to be expecting my periods this coming weekend I am taking birth control but have missed quite a couple of pills due to forgetting. Whats going on? Help me!

It is recommended that someone starting on the "birth control pill" waits 2 full menstrual cycles before relying solely on it for birth control. Condoms are encouraged until completion of the second cycle. And remember that the "pill" isn't 100% effective, only 98% and doesn't provide any protection against STD's. Also when taking any antibiotics with the pill, it lowers the effectiveness and so does having diarrhea or vomiting as it is not absorbed in the system.

I would also assume that it is a stronger birth control in a way because, unlike the pill, it stops your menstrual cycle completely until you come off of it. And even then your period will not be normal for a little while. Does anxiety run in your family? Or have you experienced anxiety before this particular incident?

I stopped taking my birth control 14 months ago and didn't wait til my cycle was over, I still had half of my pills left. Two days after I stopped I had the biggest most horrible period of my life, and it had only been a week since I had been on my period.my question is, since I didn't wait until I was done with my pills did it wack my hormones out so much that its making it hard to conceive?

Stress, a lot of sexual activity, or a lot of regular physical activity can delay it. Starting a new medication or birth control can also delay it. Sometimes it just becomes irregular. For me, having an abnormal period has always been normal. I think it came like clockwork for maybe 6 months out of the 20 years I've had it.

Hi, I had sex about 2 days after my menstrual cycle ended and my condom broke without my knowledge. I am currently on birth control pills and took plan B the day after the incident. Two days after I became very ill and took azythromyacin. I know that antibiotics interfere with birth control but given the timing, do you think my chances of pregnancy are low?

Personally from my experience with the iud I had no complications and I never got my menstrual cycle while being on it too! Once I decided to take the iud out I was pregnant within the month which normally never happens to people. The average person to get pregnant after the iud gets removed is approximately 2 or 3 months afterwards according to the doctor. However, everyone is different. Just something for you ladies to think about!

If you're on birth control, you may not have bleeding at all between birth control packs. You won't have an actual "period" on birth control, because you won't be ovulating. But between packs, you have a little hormonal bleeding that is usually much less heavy than an actual menstrual period.

You could have fertility problems and the quicker you get it checked the quicker you will find out what is normal for you. If there is nothing wrong then getting on birth control will not only help with your bleeding but will regulate you and allow you to plan around your period easier. Good luck to you.

I've been on the pill for about 10 years now. I always start my cycle on Wednesday, and it goes strong until Sunday when I start taking my active pills again. This month, I didn't get anything until Friday morning, and barely bled at all, and it was gone within 24 hours. I don't "feel" pregnant, but my metabolism and sleep schedule are both unusually off, which I attributed to going back to work full time after being unemployed for 4 months.

Please get yourself to your PCP, get a pap smear done, and discuss birth control pills or another form of birth control.

I have tried multiple types of birth control (combined hormones and progesterone only) and always have breakthrough bleeding that is just as heavy as my period. Last time I was on birth control, I bled for 22 days straight. Blood tests come back normal. no thyroid issues. hormone levels are normal. ultrasound (abdominal and transvaginal) came back normal; a minor ovarian cyst was noted but considered not to be of concern.

I'm a 31 year old mother of 4 boys ages 13 11 8 & 3. My menstrual cycle has never been the typical "28 day cycle". Even birth control made it worse at times. I decided last year in October to get off birth control because I didn't like the effects it had on my body. Once off the birth control I didn't have a menstrual cycle until March. Since then my cycle has lasted for two weeks at a time sometimes more. This month I've been on it for 30 days. And heavy!

I took planb twice in one month and mine menstrual cycle was off for a couple of months and just fyi planb is just 4 birth control pills in one so if u have birth control pills just take 4 lol my old gyno doc told me that

I am a 31 year old woman who stopped using the birth control pill about six months ago (after being on it regularly for 8 years). My husband and I are trying to conceive & for the last three months my menstrual cycles have been approx. 35-37 days long. I've read that anything over 35 days can indicate problems with ovulation. Is this true? Given that I was on the pill for so long, does it take time for my cycle to normalize?
