15 mg, and i was supposed to start my 7 day pill free yesterday, but i forgot to, instead i started with my next strip of pill yesterday.. what should i suppose to do? should i stop taking the pill for the next 6 days and i will have my period in days or should i continue taking the pill for another 20 days?
i started use Desogestrel in december at start when my period came was all fine period was gone after 4 days. january 4th started some lil bleeding and spotting and didnt stopped ever since. like 3 weeks ago i went to my doctor she said lets change to Slynd . but i am still spotting sometimes more sometimes less. my question is if i take a 1 week brake and resume taking pills will stop the spotting ?
we had sex about a week after i changed my pill to the desogestrel pill.
Hi, I know it's been about a month since you posted, but I wanted to respond because I have some experience with this. First of all I'm so sorry that you have chronic migraine and are unable to take triptans! These are a godsend for shortening my own migraines. I'm also working in a science related field and it's shocking how little research has been done to understand the cause(s) of migraines, there are lots of contradictory reports on the effect of hormones on migraines.
Tony is correct, if you are in fact breastfeeding you should discuss with your OB/GYN a progestin only pill ( a good example would be NORA-BE TABLET) . If not here are some low dose pills to consider.
It's my understanding there is next to no wiggle room with the mini pill, which is why it's extremely vital for you to take it at the exact same time each day. Use back up birth control (such as condoms NOT the pull out method) for at least a week or so while the pill becomes effective again. It's hard to say if you're safe or not, but all things considered (BFing as well as birth control) you likely will be.
told me to stop taking it as it can increase the chance of a stroke - so I stopped, came on my period and stopped on the 29th of Novemember - Had an appointment on the 12th of December (earliest I could get) to discuss what my contreceptions options were, got put on the Micronor mini pill as apparently they are okay with migraines. And I started taking it straight away.
I have been in the mini pill for the last 8 months and we have decided to try for another baby, i have been off the pill for nearly 1 week and bled for the 1st 4 days which has now stopped. How soon after finishing the mini pill can you get pregnant and has anyone fell pregnant quickly or taken a long time and been told its because of the mini pill?
Hello,
Marvelon is a type of hormonal contraception commonly known as 'the pill' or combined oral contraceptive pill which contains two active ingredients, ethinylestradiol and desogestrel. It is used for regularizing the irregular periods.
In your case, since you had 3 abortions, so any adhesion formation causing difficulty in conceiving should also be explored and in this exploratory laparascopy is very helpful.
Hi girls. I'm on the mini pill (still bf my 9 month old) and have been on antibiotics for a throat infection for the last week. Just as I finished taking them I realized they might have effected the pill.. Silly I know but gp didn't say anything... anyone know how risky this is? Thanks! Definitely want another bub just not yet!
Hello! I recently switched from combination pills to the mini-pill because it was what the free clinic had on hand. I've been taking Ortho Micronor (POP pill) during the whole month and I've noticed some changes in my cycle.
For example, while taking the combination pill, my period always arrived spot on and only lasted for 4 days. I started the mini-pill on the last day of my past period as my doctor told me to do so.

After the last laparoscopy the doctor told me that the endo. was gone and put me on the pill as a prevenative measure. However, the pill really exacerabated my migraines and made me quite depressed so I stopped taking it. Immediately after, the frequency of my migraines lessened but since, the frequency has increased greatly. I am now worried that this may be a sign that the endo. has returned.
But by the time I was on the mini pill, I got really tired of having to take any kind of pill daily so by the time I quit, I was just happy to not have to remember to take something every day.
I've had the mirena IUD since 2011 and with the exception of one time when it partially expelled and I had to get it replaced, I haven't had any other issues with it. I wish I would've gotten it sooner because for me, I got so annoyed with having to take a pill every day.
