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.
This is my first month ever being on birth control and i'm on the 28-day pack pills called Apri. i started taking the last week the "reminder pills" 3 days ago and the way i understood it is that i'm supposed to get my period on the first day i took the reminder pills...could i be pregnant or is there something else wrong?

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!

I started my period on Monday November 14th and started Apri birth control on Wednesday November 16
I have taken it religiously every night at 8:50pm and havent missed a pill I had unprotected sex several times on Sunday November 27, however he did not come inside me. I was just wondering if my birth control was affective then and if there is any chance I should be worried about a pregnancy?
Did you just start your pill in April? If so then you might not have had enough hormones in your body for the pill to be completely effective yet. When was your positive test? Was it a more recent test? I would call your MD and let them know that you are 18 days late. If you just started the pill in April it could just be because of the new hormones being introduced into your body. Or it could mean you are pregnant. You MD may want to order blood work for. Good luck.
I am 22 years old, and have been on the pill for 2 years. (Apri to be exact for the last year or so) I have never completely missed a pill, or in other words, taken one more than 24 hours after I should have. I typically take them around 8-9pm, and if I forget one, I remember about 8am the next morning....12 hours late, then I take my normal one at 8pm the same day to stay on schedule.
If you missed your period it would mean that you are already pregnant and like Linzola said the morning after pill wouldn't work. Its not an abortion pill it just prevents the egg from implanting which would of already happened. Best thing to do is take a pregnancy test since it should be accurate by now. If negative and your period still doesn't show up retest. If still negative and it doesn't show up for another week contact your doctor and get a pap and a blood test.
Last time I was on birth control of any type was in 2007 and I was on the pill. My sis in law got the arm implant one and loves it. Everyone I know who's went on the shot has gained weight and everyone I know with like the mirena had it removed due to things like it moving, causing pain during sex etc.
0.5 and 1.5. That is, an APRI score of less than 0.5 means no or very slight fibrosis, and an APRI score of more than 1.5 means cirrhosis. The intermediate scores approximate the intermediate fibrosis stages.
I have now calculated my APRI score for the seven blood tests done between 2006 and now, and the graph of the scores shows a steady progression from early to later stage fibrosis, which is apparently what has happened. That is, I'm a fast progressor (65 years old, geno 1b, etc.).
I had some really odd symptoms with Yasmin and begged my dr to take me off of it, since then I was on Apri, which is just generic desogen. Initally did much better on this one so I'm not sure how yaz/yasmin works but I can say my withdrawal bleed "period" got way longer on it- I used to only bleed for 4 days on Aleese, then gradually this increased and due to weight gain and water retention switched to Yasmin...
