Common Questions and Answers about Kariva spotting

Avatar f tn 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...
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn 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 1.5 30 tab for 3 months and now I’m on Junel 1/20.
Avatar m tn I am on Kariva birth control. I missed 2 or 3 pills the week that i had sex. We used protection everytime except penetration once for like 30 but he did not ejaculate. 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.
1063764 tn?1272821064 I am also on the birth control pill Kariva. I was told that they would not interfere with each other, however something is not right and I was just wondering if anyone out there could help me out. I can't get back to the endocrinologist for another 4 months for my next test, so I did not want to stop the medication. Does anyone know how long it stays in your body...I was considering not taking it for a few weeks just to see if this cleared up.
Avatar f tn i know all birth controls are different, but they have a lot of similar side effects. i was on yasmin, seasonique, kariva, and now sprintec. the first two that i mentioned: i had my period for about a month. sometimes it just takes a while for your body to adjust. for me it eventually regulated.
11728532 tn?1451774466 Hi there, I'm an 18 y/o female and I have taken birth control ( Kariva -- to be specific) since I was 15 to treat PCOS. About a month ago, I had intercourse and afterwards I bled heavily and had cramps for a week. I should not have gotten my period for another two weeks according to my pills. When I took the pills that started my period, It was very light and ended two days early. We used a condom but I'm scared.
Avatar m tn m a 21 year old who just stopped the pill after 5 years of being on it consistently. 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.
Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar f tn orthotrycyclinn made me have two cycles a month but every pill they gave me did that instead of makeing my periouds lighter it made me have more and heavier ones, plus i lost a lot of weight on birth control i was on kariva, low loesestrin fe, abri, orthottycyclin, and two other ones all of them did the same thing they helped witht he cramps but i had more cycles than i was suppposed to.
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn 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).
Avatar n tn 6 which is above the norm. I also take Kariva as a birth control. What I am worried about is whether I really need to take this thyroid medication. I am not an anti-medicine person, but I certainly don't want to be taking something I don't need to take. Please, advise. Nat.
Avatar f tn ve been on Mircette (a.k.a Kariva). Before I started Mircette I stopped my pills about 3 days before I was supposed to right before I was to start my cycle. Anyway, long story short, with this pill all I've had are bad gas and gas pains, some cramping but other than that I don't feel like I'm on bcp. Well yesterday I was supposed to have my period but when I thought it was here, I had mucus like cm and then some pinkish brownish discharge with it.
Avatar f tn Then a week later spotted (brown) for 12 days until my period which was different it only lasted two days and was medium to light. I took a pregnancy test on the 3rd day of spotting and it was negative. Should I be concerned? I am worried because I never spot.
Avatar f tn I'm 13 weeks pregnant & throughout I have had light spotting, nothing bad & had no pains. Midwife has told me its completely normal. But still freaked out, does anyone else feel the same?
Avatar f tn m pregnant or not and I went to the bathroom this morning and when I wiped I had some spotting and just wanted to know if this is normal for early pregnancy just to put my mind at ease till I find out if I am.
Avatar f tn I took a home preg test 2/3/12 but it came back not preg. Today when I went to the bathroom I was spotting a little. How long should I wait before taking another preg test?
Avatar f tn Im sexually active and since ive been on the pill i havnt used protection. Ive been spotting for almost 2 weeks now but ive taken multiple pregnancy tests and theyve all shown negative. When i had started to take the pill for about two weeks i also got bad cramps. Ive had papsmears etc but i want to know if this is normal ?
Avatar f tn So im 13 weeks and I started spotting tonight.. I've seen it now 3 times when ive went to the bathroom. The first time, I saw it when wiping. The second time, I saw drops of it in the toilet as well as when I was wiping. The third time, I saw it only when wiping.. is this something I should be concerned about? I called a nurse already but all she said was to get checked out within 24 hours and that was pretty much all..
Avatar f tn Hi, i'm 11 weeks pregnant I haven't been seen by a doctor yet due to insurance issues. The past few days I've been spotting dark blood when I wipe and it looks like theres specks in it. I am in no pains and I have no cramps. Could it be a miscarriage? After I had my 1st baby (8months ago) during delivery my placenta exploded and the doctors had to clean my uterus. Could it be from them not cleaning it out properly? Is this normal. And info would be greatly appreciated.
Avatar f tn Help please. Did anyone here have spotting a week or more before they were suppose to have their period? I'm not 100% I'm pregnant yet I find out in the morning but I'm just trying to get a few questions answered.
Avatar f tn t had any imaging or confirmed due date) according to my HCG levels. I noticed a little bit of spotting this morning when I used the restroom. I would normally be going off my period right at this time. Is spotting normal for 7 weeks?
Avatar f tn I just got off implanon and had my period oct 3rd and spotted on the 15-17 which I thought was ovulation. Never got my period oct 31 and last night while my husband and I were bd-ing I had spotting. It was only for an hour and stopped. I have no idea what's going on. Not sure if my body is getting regular or what! So frustrating!
