ive been on loestrin 24 fe for about 2 weeks now i started it on a sunday which happen to be the first day of my period that lasted 7 days to end to start with the breakthough bleeding 2 days later and it has yet to stop any idean how long this is going to last i cant begin to think about bleeding for months stright.
there is always a possibility....since uve only been taking them for a week im not sure ur body has enough of the hormones to 'protect' you. from experience though, i was on loestrin for 2 years and i got pregnant...
I started Lo Loestrin Fe oral birth control pill on January 14, 2014 after being off of it since Thanksgiving of 2013. Previously I had constant break-though bleeding (more like a period- for even 2 and a half weeks) and cramps. I switched to Microgestin and that made me so sick I stopped, and then restarted Lo Loestrin Fe.
I have taken it everyday and have never missed a pill.
just to share...i never had acne until i started taking birth control. I have taken 2 different kinds of BC and hated them both...Cyclessa and Ortho-tricyclen lo. I'm getting ready to try Loestrin and will let you know how it goes. Have you ever considered seeing a dermatologist instead? I think that is the way to go. I was prescribed a benzoyl peroxide wash and clindamycin phosphate roll-on and it worked great. I was on it for like a year or so and hardly ever break out anymore.
Unless your hormones were way out of whack to start with, before you started the Loestrin, your hormonal levels should not be affected long term after taking BC.
I would recommend a thorough physical with your doc (if you haven't already), that includes bloodwork, checking for things like thyroid imbalances, anemia, glucose levels.
Everything I read said the pill is very effective if taken correctly and no pills are missed or skipped. I havent skipped any, but since I took 3 extra pills, this is technically not taking the pills "correctly" either. I've been very bloated and have been having terrible back aches since the sex. Could I be pregnant?
i want to know if retro-screening very effective for HIV test.
Hi! I'm traveling across the country to see my boyfriend this weekend, after not having seen him for two whole months. We're in a long distance relationship and we usually only get to see each other once a month for a few days at a time. Needless to say, this is a really special occasion for us! Unfortunately, my period is expected to arrive anywhere from Sunday through Tuesday, threatening to put a damper on some uh, plans!
Hi!
If your girlfriend was my patient, I would recommend a repeat pregnancy test in one week UNLESS she has her normal period. I would then test weekly for up to 4-6 weeks. If she has not resumed her periods by then and isn't pregnant, she should check with her doctor. If she is pregnant, she should also check with her doctor, of course.
It is possible that the pills delayed her ovulation and that is the reason for the delayed period.
how long has it been? not sure but i think plan b can be taken up to 72 hours after sex. amoxicillin can make birth control LESS effective, it doesn't completely cancel it out though. also have you checked to see if you were ovulating the day you had sex? an easy way to figure that out is go to babycenter.com and there is an ovulation calculator. when are you supposed to get your next period? i would just wait it out..
t supposed to start until around the 12th) I just got prescribed birth control and my doctor said if you take it on the first day of your period it becomes effective right away so later on that evening I decided to take my first pill. A little later I decided I should change my tampon and when I took it out there was brown blood on it, but it was not full. I usually have a very heavy period and barely make it to the bathroom in the morning when it starts.
So I’m on Lo Loestrin fe for about 2 months now, I was on Nexplanon before. Anyways about 2 1/2 weeks ago I was on Metronidazole and had unprotected sex on the 5th day, the nurse told me to use condoms for 8 days. I also missed my last “active white pill” (before 2 Placebo pills) Friday 3/9, had unprotected sex and didn’t realize till Monday. I took my Wednesday pill 3/14 about 17 hours late. Is it possible I can become pregnant?
how many capsules do i put up there before bed? for how many days did you use it before you had a baby, if it worked? i had a membrane sweep last tuesday, i was 1 cm dilated (but thats probabbly because its my second baby) i lost my mucous plug/bloody show last wednesday, so i'm guessing i am 2 or 3 cm now after the membrane sweep.. i'll ask for another membrane sweep at an appointment tommorow..so how likely is primrose oil would work if i am about 2 cm and had a bloody show?
