levora

Avatar f tn I have been on levora birth control for four months now and my boyfriend and I had unprotected sex two days in a row and he finished inside of me, we usually don't do that. However, now I'm getting nervous because I hear that levora is a low dose pill and they are easy to get pregnant on.. I usually take it at 8 am sometimes I'm an hour late but usually I always take it at 8. I'm on the third week of my pack so I should be starting my period next week.
Avatar f tn t work, so my Gyn re-prescribed Levora 3 weeks ago. Within a few days of taking Levora again I noticed that I was much more mentally vulnerable and by the third week on Levora I was completely destroyed emotionally and mentally. This last weekend I had very strong desires to kill myself by stabbing myself repeatedly. I have a great husband who has helped me stay safe and talked me through the difficult times. I am not ready for a hysterectomy/ooverectomy yet.
Avatar f tn So I took Levora from the age of like 14 through 26 (I went off of it around age 23 and got pregnant shortly after so I didn't get back on it until I stopped breastfeeding). I started getting my period very young (age 9) and I don't recall them being too irregular. Normally they'd be about 28 - 32 days in between periods. So a little irregular but still not too irregular. They were also always very heavy and painful, hence why my mother opted to put me on Levora.
Avatar n tn I have been on the birth control pill levlen since january this year, i missed one day and the night after me and my boyfriend had had unprotected sex, i know that there is always a danger of falling pregnant from having unprotected sex, but i was wondering if the danger had increased due to my missed pill?
Avatar n tn Started on birth control pills 5 months ago simply to try and regulate my periods and lessen the severity of bleeding. First I was on Levlen which worked fine for about 3 months, even managed to skip a period successfully. Then started to get breakthrough bleeding half way through cycle which was continuous for 3 weeks but some days worse than others. Went back to GP who changed me to Brevicon which is a stronger pill.
Avatar f tn t know. when i went in they switched me off of the yasmin and onto levora so it would be cheaper. but i never had problems with yasmin anyways. but after taking the levora i started getting anxiety not anxiety attacks but just high anxiety all the time everyday till now. i don't know if it was the levora or if it was the sinus thing because i remember feeling sort of like this the day we went to pick the levora for the first time. does anyone have any answers for me.
Avatar f tn With all the commercials you see on TV about YAZ and Yasmin and all the problems it has caused, i cant imagine that the positives out weigh the negatives. Currently I am on Levlen birth control, it has the minimum amount of estrogen and it works wonderful! But because everyone is different, i would suggest doing some research on birth control types and find whats best for her, then talk to a doctor about those types you have looked over. Good Luck!
Avatar f tn I was on levlen ed for 3 months but then stopped that because I wanted a non-generic brand. Then I had bleeding 3 days after that lasted for 3/4 days after I stopped which I know is normal, however I didn't get my period for two months after. now I have my period and I started the pill brevinor but I have had 2 periods now and they are brown in colour and not red. anyone know if this is normal because I didn't have my period for two months, maybe its just the old blood from that??
Avatar f tn I'm currently using Levlen ED for having a lighter period and less cramps. It hasn't been working like the doctors said it would and I still get very heavy periods and been getting very bad cramps, and only in the last two months have I been getting very, very light periods, I don't even need to wear a tampon or a pad, just a panty liner is enough. I am sexually active and I'm just worried that I am pregnant as I have missed a pill or two in the past.
Avatar f tn Im on levOra, have been for 5 mOnths. I have horrible allergies so last week I took 1 antibiotic pill to try & stop my symptoms. This was about 5 days ago. Will I get pregnant if I have sex unprotected?
Avatar f tn Im taking the pill (Levlen ED) and have been for many years to skip my periods and have one every three months, however this time my body went a little crazy and my period lasted for 10 days and ever since (5 days) i've had brown discharge, some days its really light and i only see it when i wipe, others it gets on my underwear. Anyway my doctor prescribed me cyklokapron saying it would stop it and i was wondering if anyone else has taken it for this reason?
Avatar n tn I've been on combination birth control for about 5 months now (first Levora, then switched to Portia 2 months in), and I've had breakthrough periods before. In the past, they were like my regular periods: lighter, but similar general consistency and flow so I would have to wear a pad. Recently, I've noticed that when I wipe, there's been light traces of blood which I thought was just my breakthrough period.

Avatar f tn I currently stopped taking the pill, levlen. 3 months ago and have had normal periods after this. I am now 16 days late for my period And have taken 3 pregnancy test that are all negative. I have had constant headaches,continually tired, nausea and vomiting occasionally, loads of pimples breaking out ( normally have good skin) and kind of cramps but not as bad. When I lay on my tummy I feel awkward like I shouldn't be on my stomach. I keep thinking maybe it is all in my head.
Avatar f tn I'm taking birth control pills since yesterday. My doctor didn't ask me to take a pregnancy test because I was sure I wasn't. But this morning I threw up and I feel nausea. I'm also experiencing dizziness. I'm taking levora. So now idk if I'm pregnant or it's just the first effects of the pills. I talked to my doctor and she said I shouldn't be throwing up.

Avatar m tn so for the past 6 months i've been on levora, a birth control. the past couple of months i've been having aches on my right side, i'm pretty sure it's my ovary (and no i do not think it's ovulatin, those aches last only a day). these aches are on and off the whole month.i had my withdrawal bleed about 2 and a half weeks ago so i doubt i'm pregnant. i'm very good at taking the pill as well. i've been with my.
Avatar f tn m still on the pill (levlen ed) I know I have to get off the pill for a better and higher chance of falling pregnant but I'm afraid of bleeding like I did last time. Just winding what you think I should do to have a higher chance of falling pregnant other then just going off the pill. ???
Avatar f tn Hello, If you suffer from dysmenorrhea (painful menses) or irregular menses, yes, the birth control pill can be used to help regulate your menstrual cycle and improve dysmenorrhea. In your case, having had a tubal ligation, the indication would not be for birth control but for the symptoms you describe and that is fine. I'm not sure what you mean by taking four pills. You should take it as you otherwise would: one pill at the same time each day.
Avatar f tn I've been on birth control (levlen ed) for over 9 or 10 months and it's been working fine. My periods were coming once a month right on time and for 4 days. But last month (april) i got my period a week early and i thought it was because i was on penecillian but then the week after i got it again and it was painful which is unusual for me. And this week i got it again.

Avatar f tn I am currently on levlen (birthcontrol) but have many many times forgotten to take my pill and will have intercourse so i tend to skip my periods with the sugar pill and saying that i actually havn't seen them for a long time apart from getting brown discharge. Have you at all had your period latley? I feel fine and no sickness or anything apart from the boobs/bloating/moodiness and peeing abit more. Are you trying to get pregnant? If so have you been experiencing any symptoms?

Avatar f tn I've been on levlen ed for about 2months and my boyfriend and I have had sex most days besides when i get my period. But we haven't been using condoms because we were relying on the pill. Last week i started taking penicillian (sorry if i spelt it wrong) and we have ha unprotected sex at least 4-5 times and each time he ha ejaculated. And my doctor never told me about penicillian effecting the pill. And only last night i started vomiting pretty badly. Im scared to tell my mum.
