Last Wednesday I got my period, and I began taking Kariva Birth Control. On friday, My boyfriend and I decided to have sex, which was dumb, but we used a condom with spermicide on it and in it. After a little bit, the condom popped and he pulled out immediately without ejaculating at all. Then we were finished.
I know that people say that girls can get pregnant on their periods, however, i was only on the 3rd day of my cycle and i highly doubt that i could have ovulated so early...
Hi-
I am a 17 year old girl and I have been on birth control pills for a little over a year and a half now. I was originally prescribed Ortho-Tricyclen Lo but was switched to Kariva in May of this year because it was said to be the "less expensive generic brand" of Tricyclen Lo. I always felt a little more irritable and noticed my skin got a little more sensitive when I originally started taking the pill, but nothing too bad.
I am a 34 y/o mother of 1. I’ve been on BCP for 12 ½ years. In Aug 2007 I started taking Kariva 28 day and stayed on it until Aug 2009. A few months before this, I began having issues with my cycle. I wasn’t getting my period, I got my period early plus the full week I was supposed to, and then I was spotting several days a month. I then found out I had Hashimoto's Thyroiditis and started treatment hoping that would help. I didn't. I went on Portia 28 for 5 months, Junel 1.
I took plan b (the one pill version) between th 48 and 72 hour mark. It has been 2 weeks since and my period has been a couple days late and very very light (dark brown). I know that the plan b causes disruptions in menstrating and so does missing pills but id like to lnow if im just overly paranoid. I know i took a lot of precautions but is it not actually a lot? Please let me know!
In October I was switched from Azzurette to Kariva, just a generic brand switch. I hated it and decided to go natural and stop the pill all-together around November 13. I got my "withdrawal period" right after. Meanwhile, the last time I had sex with my boyfriend was October 14, and on October 28 I got a very short light period, which I couldn't tell was a result of the generic switch or if it was implantation bleeding.
He said he could see lots of follicles in my right ovary, and what lookde like some scarring on the left. He did not elaborate further. He prescribed me Kariva and sent me home. One thing I want to note here is that after intrusive gynecological exams I always have pain and cramping. Don't know what's up with that.
On Saturday I took my first dose of Kariva. A few hours later I started experiencing mild nausea and a terrible headache.
I do take the medication same time every day without any thing else. I checked and the levoxly is not a generic and I do not take any other drugs (except Kariva at night). I would not know why my hair is falling out or what to ask the doctor to check. I am so worried that I will be the only bald one in my family.
For the last eight months I have been going through a lot of life changes. I graduated college, searched for a job, moved back in with my parents for four months, started a new & highly stressful job in which i work 60-70 hours per week, and decided to buy a house with my boyfriend of five years. Recently I developed a Strep Infection/Ear Infection which caused the Doctor's to put me on a Z-Pack. This was back in October (Oct. 27th to be exact).
Last month I missed a pill one day in about the middle of the month and began spotting for about a week or so, and still got a regular period when it was scheduled. This month, almost two weeks ago I began spotting even though i haven't missed a single pill. I've looked for reasons this may be happening but only see people mentioning spotting that shouldn't hit your underwear, or only be a small amount for a few days when missing a pill or becoming pregnant.
So May 9, 2013 i had experienced something that has NEVER IN MY LIFE happened 2 me. I started spotting and it wasnt a period but this spotting is very light and the color is light pink then turns alittle brown. I am trying for a baby but it cant be my period cuz my periods are at the end of each month and i just got off recently. it is may 11th, 2013 and im still spotting lightly. cycles: FEB 23-27, MAR 27-31=32 DAYS AND MAR 27-31, APR 25-29= 29 DAYS. SO WHEN DO I OVULATE FOR MAY????
All day I had maybe an equivalent to about 5 spots of pink and brown when I wipe and on a liner. Well today I wiped this morning and there was a little dot of pink/maybe red and that's it. I have nothing on my liner to care about. Do you think my body is adjusting to the low dose eventhough I was just on it the end of March (Loestrin 24) and April (Ortho Lo)? I'm confused and don't know if I should POAS.
Cramping is normal and spotting can happen, but it is not good to have them together. Some women bleed and/or spot during early pregnancy but you should go to a doctor to make sure that the bleeding or spotting is not threatening the baby. I personally had some spotting during early pregnancy, but the baby was fine. I did not have cramping while I was spotting and the spotting wasn't continuous for days. Definitely get yourself checked out.
So although it is scary and you feel nervous every time you go to the loo, spotting is very common!
So I'm 5 weeks pregnant with my 2nd child and I'm cramping and spotting. Is this normal? I had my daughter 13 years ago so I don't remember having these symptoms.
I saw that I had some spotting, and of course I was scared out of my mind. It is that brown spotting like the begining of a period. I then checked out the dates and actually, this would be the time my period would beging. It usually starts within the 28th and 30th day. Is this normal?
I am trying to remain calm.
This is my first pregnancy and I spotted twice bright red blood. Once at 7 weeks and another time at 13 weeks. I'm now 17w 1d and everything is fine. Spotting isn't always a bad thing, and there can be many reasons for it. Just try to rest and don't lift anything heavy.
I'm 5w 1d today and I'm having some spotting. I had heavy bleed and a clout on Monday. Went to the hospital and all they could see was a sac. I'm scheduled for another ultrasound next week, but I'm worried about the spotting. Anyone else experience this?? I'm having the hardest time waiting.
last month was my first month and femara. I had the same spotting, and my cycle was also 30 days. (usually mine is 35 though, so 30 was better for me). . . the spotting bothered me too, I kept hoping that it was implantation bleeding. But no, finally af came full force. This is my second month on it. I o'd the same day this day as last month, so expect the cycle will be 30 days again. Good luck with your IUI!!
