4565515 tn?1373411085 So in addition to the stomach problems of the past two weeks I've developed acne! I NEVER get acne and I don't know why I've started breaking out! I'm not stressed, I get plenty of sleep, NOTHING in my life has changed! So what's up? I take hormonal birth control it's called Apri. I switched to it two or so years ago because my other bc pills were causing acne, but it cleared right up when I started Apri.
Avatar f tn I took an emergency contraceptive pill last Friday and I wasn't suppose to get my period until the 5th or 6th of November. But I had sexual intercourse yesterday and my partner noticed some blood but we didn't mind it that much. This morning I woke up and I was bleeding. I'm not exactly sure but I think I got my period. The whole point is, can it be possible for the contraceptive pill to cause a woman's period to come a week or two sooner?
Avatar f tn OK. So I was on Apri for a year when I was with my bf. My last period on Apri was July 18, 2008. After that period, I took about 4 of the pills before I decided to go off the pill for a few months, since my bf and I broke up months ago and I don't like taking medicine/hormones I don't need. Naturally, my period started again a few days after I stopped taking the pill, so maybe the beginning of August. Last week, I made a really stupid, stupid mistake and slept with my ex w/o protection.

1055902 tn?1286305198 t know why and does not want to make any assumption. He put me on a birth control pill called Apri to bring on a period and hopefully clear out the tissues. If Apri does not help, then he consider doing D & C. Why not do a D & C instead of taking the pills? I'm afraid, I may never get pregnant from taking the pills. Any thoughts on this? I can't stop crying!
Avatar f tn Is it true that contraceptive pills lessen your cramps and what are the side effects?
Avatar f tn i took my last contraceptive pill 2 days ago could i get pregnant if i had sex the day after while waiting fore period
Avatar f tn Dear I made mistake of having frottage first time in life though I am still virgin but I do not want to get pregnant. The situation is i had last period starting on 3rd Apri if I am not wrong and I had frottage (genital rubbing without clothes) on 14 h April where i was extremly wet and my ex was not wet at all, he did went to washroom but did not do anything and came back which mean he didnot pre ejeculated neither he had anything on his penis.
Avatar f tn Hi, I was on the pill Apri for a little over a yr. Had a laparoscopy and hysteroscopy for endo, a polyp and a cyst. After that I wanted to try for a baby. Anyways, I stopped my birth control the same day I had my surgery and I've never had a problem. I'm not sure about everyone but that was what happened to me. Everything was fine. I had surgery on June 25th, 2010 and so it's been almost 3 weeks. I hope this helps. Good luck, take care!
Avatar f tn I will be getting married in a month. I wish to know what is the best contraceptive option for me.My spouse isnt comfortable in using condoms. I am 24 and he is 26. We dont wish to have children for atleast 2 years.
Avatar f tn So I had unprotected sex about 2 weeks ago and took the Plan B contraceptive therefore I started my period about 2-3 weeks earlier than usual. Towards the end of my period I had sex again and another accident happened. Should I be worried about pregnancy since I had my period earlier than usual? and should I take Plan B again to be safe?

In a previous thread, concerned with the reliability of fibrosis tests like biopsy, Fibroscan, Fibrotest, FibroTC, etc., I mentioned a simple fibrosis index I recently discovered called the AST-to-Platelet Ratio Index, or APRI, that can be calculated from blood tests, and which has been shown to have a high level of reliability.

Avatar m tn yes of course, i-pill is an emergency contraceptive pill which is consumed to avoid unwanted pregnancy in case of unportected sexual intercourse. so to be sure of avoiding pregnancy you can definitely use i-pill. you are suppose to take i-pill within 72 hrs of intercourse for it to be of any effect.
Avatar f tn We were scared that she might get pregnant due to precum. So she took a contraceptive pill (I-pill) within 48 hours. This is the first time she ever took a contraceptive pill. We had sex again a week after and used protection. The next day she started bleeding heavily accompanied by mild abdominal pain. She has had irregular period and we don't know weather this has something to do with sex or she has her period. Moreover she just had her period 3 weeks ago.
Avatar f tn What is this contraceptive pill you keep taking? Is it a pill you're supposed to take every day, but for some reason you're only taking it when you have sex? If that's the case, that it's a daily pill but you're only taking it every once in a while, it's not going to keep you from getting pregnant.
Avatar f tn I took my first active pill the morning after the active finished and then that evening had unprotected sex but he pulled out before finishing, then the next day I took the emergency contraceptive pill within 24hours and continued taking my pill as per usual. Do you think I have anything to worry about?
Avatar n tn If you've had unprotected sex and have taken an emergency contraceptive pill within 24 hours of unprotected sex, should you begin taking a birth control pill immediately? What if you haven't started taking the pill yet; should you still wait until you get your next period or will taking it asap help prevent a pregnancy? Thanks!
Avatar m tn you shouldn't be forced to have sex. if you're concerned about getting pregnant before you're married, either dont have sex, or use a condom. also, no contraceptive pill is 100% effective. the most is 99% and even then, multiple people get pregnant while on them. My mother got pregnant with me while she was on the pill. bottom line: if you dont want her to get pregnant before the wedding, use a condom or just dont do it. condom's dont feel much different than the real thing.
