junel

Avatar f tn Hi! Im 21...on the birth control "Junel" which is generic for Loestrin 24. I had my period September 21..and recently changed to Junel 3 months ago. I did not have a period in October and have taken several pregnancy tests. Then this past week when i was supposed to have my november period, i only had some brown discharge and its not consistent..just at some point everyday. I have not taken a pregnancy test since this has occurred.
Avatar n tn Generics all have their own names but from a chemical standpoint, the active ingredients are identical to the name brand. Where Junel and Blisovi differ is just in the inactive ingredients.
Avatar f tn While there is little likelihood of ovulation occurring if only one tablet is missed, the possibility of spotting or bleeding is increased. This is particularly likely to occur if two or more consecutive tablets are missed. In the rare case of bleeding which resembles menstruation, the patient should be advised to discontinue medication and then begin taking tablets from a new tablet dispenser on the next Sunday or the first day (Day 1) depending on her regimen.
Avatar n tn So like I said, this is aparently normal when on Loestrin. Im going to go on the generic of Loestrin, Junel Fe, which worked for me in the past and I think its 21 days of the pill and than 7 days of the "period" part. As much as I dread my period, it's a reassuring thing.
Avatar n tn I recently changed my birth control pills from junel Fe 1/20 to Azurette. I had been on Junel fe for years, and was on Azurette before as well. I decided to switch back to Azurette because it helps my acne. However, I was advised to use a backup method for a month when exchanging. I finished my Junel Fe and got my period, then started Azurette on the Sunday after my period. I had the condom break the following Sunday after.
Avatar f tn Today is July 30th i'm now 6 days late my average cycles range from 28-30 days and my period only last 3 days .I have been on Junel Fe for a couple months now me and my boyfriend had unprotected sex on the 20th while I went to go visit him .I lost my birth control the day before and spotted two days later help ?
Avatar f tn So I took a urine test anyway and it came out negative. Reading a lot about Junel Fe 1/20 and many women just never get periods bec their lining is so thin from the pill!
Avatar f tn I switched to Junel fe 1/20 about 2 months ago, I've taken the pill daily and haven't been sexually active since I switched, but before I was. I have yet to get my period in these two months I've been on it, I've felt like I was on my period and even got cramps but no bleeding. the last time i got my period was July 4th. what should I do? Does Junel Fe cause no bleeding periods? should I be worried?
Avatar f tn Sorry, what is Junel?? The pull out method, also if not effective at all. Since you tested the day before your period was due...could have just been too early to detect the hormones. I would re test now with first morning urine, you are late enough now that it should show up accurately enough.

It was our first time...so it didn't go on very long. The condom didn't break or slip off. These past few days I've been a little nauseated. I didn't think much of it until I started peeing a lot and this morning I woke up with spotting and cramping.

I guess that I'd use condoms as back up when on antibiotics if on the pill. It's been a week or so, did your period come as it was supposed to?
Avatar f tn I take Junel birth control pills but ran out. The pharmacy didnt have any more refills and my doctor is hard to reach. I supposed to started taking my new pack last Thursday. What should I do?
Avatar f tn I was put on Junell three years ago, my periods were light. And my obgyn wanted me to get the blood flow regulated. I went without having a period for 2.5years, and one period in the past 5/6 months. I took myself off June l, because I didn't feel that I had a sex drive, and I didn't like how my hormones were making me feel. Well I feel more like myself emotionally, but my period is as heavy , (blood flow wise) like how it was when I was a teeny bopper!
Avatar n tn Maybe you should request different birth control? Junel is typically one the insurance company likes the most, but there are other ones like Larin Fe. Each birth control pill has slightly different chemical make up that work for some women while can makes others feel side effects and sick. I’m also taking Junel Fe, and it’s worked alright for me, so I’d recommend asking to switch pills.
Avatar m tn I have been taking junel fe 1/20 for 4 years, with the occasional missed pill but for the most part daily at the same time. I however forgot to take two pills, and then had unprotected sex with ejaculation on one of the days I missed the pills. What are my chances of getting pregnant?
Avatar m tn I have been in Junel FE 1/20 for three months now. I had my period on Jan 1st. It was my regular period. 3 days of bleeding and the fourth day spotting. Then on February I did not have my regular period. The first week of February I had discharge that looked like it could be old blood, but I never bleed to the point that I had to have pads or tampons on. In March same thing happened. I saw a spot of blood in the toilet water, but I am not sure if this was my period.
Avatar m tn I started my second month on junel fe birth control 4 days ago. the second night i forgot to take it at my regular time of approximately 10pm. and I ended up taking it at like 5am. is there a chance of pregnancy?
Avatar n tn Just try and give it more time, there could be other factors causing it to be late other than pregnancy, or you can go to you dr and have a blood test done to be sure.
Avatar f tn I have been currently taking Junel fe 1/20 for a year now and last month I forgot to refill so I ended up not taking it that whole month, well after I had my period I started it again and I did skip a pill but took it as soon as I remembered well I have passed week 4 and I didn't get a period this is the first time this has ever happened to me I have never missed a period even on the pill has this ever happened to anyone?
Avatar m tn I'm on my second week of Junel fe 1/20 and have been bleeding the last few days, and the first week I have problens stayin wet, is this because of the Birth Control
Avatar m tn I have been on Junel Fe 1/20 for about 6 months now. When I first started taking the pill, I had normal periods for about 4 days. As the months went on, the periods got much lighter and shorter, limiting them to just about a day. Now, this past month, I had no period at all (but still the normal slight cramping that goes along with it.) This is a normal reaction to birth control and not a sign of pregnancy correct? I was previously on Lo Loestrin Fe and never got periods with this pill.
Avatar f tn I'm on birth control (Junel Fe 120). The last time I had sexual intercourse was July 11. I had to stop taking birth control around July 7 because I finished a pack, but couldn't get a new pack due to a backup on my insurance. I was off the pill for a month. I had 2 cycles since then. One very heavy like it was before I got on the pill, then one light because I started taking the pill again. I'm 8 days late on my period this month and I don't know why.
Avatar m tn Kippie, Take the Brac test. It's expensive but they do payment arrangements and it'll better situate you for knowing where you stand as far as breast cancer. Also, if you are uncomfortable with your doctor, find a new one. Period. I kept a gyno I didn't much like because he was highly recxommendwd and ended up losing an ovary due to his pure laziness in the operatig room.

Avatar f tn I have been taking the birth control pills (Junel FE) for over a year now, and have been sexually active with the same man for 2 years. I have never missed a pill intill recently. I had sex without using a condom on tuesday and he pulled out right after he began ejaculating, i took wed. and thurs. pill but missed fridays and didnt realize intill i took tonights pill which is saturday.
Avatar f tn My daughter is 17 and has been on Junel FE 1.5 mg-30 tablets for 2 weeks now. She seems to be having pains in her chest that hurts when she breaths or swallows food.
Avatar f tn I'm 17 years old and have been on Junel for about 5 months now. I missed my period last month and I'm in the middle of the week of when I'm supposed to now. Is this normal? My doctor only gave it to me because I had very long, heavy periods. I've never had sex (though I came close to it back in late December). I also take Boiron gelsemium sempervirens to help with my anxiety problems. P.S. I recently took a drug test and it almost came up positive for marijuana.
